Hello!
Hello!
Hi! My name is Cliff Bailey. I grew up in Cary, North Carolina, graduating from Cary Sr. High in 1998. Straight from there I enrolled at East Carolina University and graduated with a degree in Media Production in 2002. I then attended North Carolina State University from 2008-2009 where I earned a teaching certificate and in 2010 I taught 10th grade English at a local high school. That summer I relocated to Columbus, Ohio where a year and a half later I enlisted in the U.S. Navy where I served as a Mass Communication Specialist (photo/video journalist and public affairs specialist) from 2012-2016 on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaii as part of the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency. In the fall of 2016 I enrolled at University of Hawaii - Manoa where I enrolled in their Digital Filmmaking program. In 2019 I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - Inattentive - which answered a lot of questions about myself and my life, helping me to focus in on a career just in time for the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, when I also graduated from UH-Manoa with a degree in Filmmaking *and* English Literature. In 2021 I enrolled at UH-West Oahu for a degree in Video Game Design. If I was an artistʻs tool, Iʻd be software. Software. At the beginning I tend to overthink and complicate whatever it is I'm starting to work on, so it's like a steep learning curve. But once the spark ignites I enter a flow state and excel at what I'm working on, producing something truly unique.

Abstract
Abstract
This research explored the challenges faced by individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in academic and personal contexts. The researcher discussed their own struggle with composing the research due to concerns about confirmation bias, an abundance of data, and their own ADHD. The research highlights the negative impact of toxic messaging on emotional resilience and fortitude, particularly in childhood. The researcher used two scenarios to illustrate the common misconceptions surrounding ADHD, namely, the assumption that kids grow out of it or the use of harsh disciplinary measures calling for greater awareness and understanding of ADHD and its impact on individuals, particularly in the educational and personal domains.

CREATIVE PROCESS:
The concept of creativity has come a long way. The Old Greeks would call those creative forces muses, other religions referred to them as God. Today people still mostly treat creativity as an aha moment outside the area of influence. However, just by looking at the creative process one can tell, that creativity and creative work is more than just that one "Aha-Moment" (insight). It is clear that generating ideas demands planning and preparation, identifying something of interest like a problem, an opportunity or a challenge, doing research. This then leads to thinking of a solution, allowing time to incubate and iterations before arriving at something “complete.” Students learn that hard work is what makes their ideas come to life and sticktuiveness is what helps them get better.
