Ohio State Prison: not a place I ever imagined being connected to. Yet, there's a fish swimming in a tank there with my name on it. For years, I was a master of disguise, hiding an addiction that whispered, 'You're not good enough.' Success felt like a borrowed suit, always waiting to be taken back. Rock bottom? I knew it well, but then I discovered there was a basement.

Recovery has been a stumble forward, a messy, imperfect journey. It's about facing the truth, not just about addiction, but about myself. Now, I'm collaborating with people inside, sharing stories through art, reaching across walls and water. The fish? They're a symbol of something unexpected, a reminder that hope can swim in the unlikeliest of places. So, pause with your coffee, and remember, we're all just trying to find our way."
