Every structure, if it is to stand, needs a solid foundation. While I am privileged to tell the stories of communities through art, my husband is the steady presence behind the scenes— offering encouragement, perspective, and support along the way. His belief in me, his patience through the unknowns, and his quiet strength have helped make space for this creative work to grow.

To my husband: Thank you for being my constant support. For encouraging my ideas, praying for this journey, and walking beside me through each season. None of this would exist without your steady presence, and I am endlessly grateful for you.

I love you, my Matthew.
