For 40 years, my story was full of trauma, mental illness, addiction, and homelessness. When I almost took my own life and instead came to face life in a wheelchair, everything changed. It's five years later, and I'm working on my Master's degree in the Theology of Disability and Mental Health, and I've started my own business. The Creator's Design offers affordable web and graphic design, as well as marketing services to non-profit organizations and church ministries. The populations my clients serve are the exact ones I spent the first part of my life in. I love what I do. I love that it gives my life meaning. I love the change that I see happening through the work that I do. I don't care that I'm not getting paid what corporations pay for design. My reward is much greater.
