Why Brooklyn? Originally I moved to Brooklyn to attend Pratt Institute in 2002. I quickly fell in love with Brooklyn and ended up making it my permanent home.  It is a city within a city that holds so much culture, flavor, diversity, art, music, architecture, knowledge, nature, dining, drinking etc. etc.  It is in my opinion, a perfect place for an artist or creative to live: the inspiration is endless!  I can experience damn near every culture from around the world without ever having to leave Brooklyn.  I can walk for hours through the ever changing neighborhoods and never get tired or bored.  I can ride the subway a couple of stops and be in a different country.  There is no other place like New York City, but I believe that Brooklyn is it's soul heart.
