In the midst of my military service in Afghanistan, I uncovered a hidden passion for art. From the humble '6Whiskey' wood shop emerged creations that not only improved daily life but also united soldiers through shared ingenuity. I was mentoring US soldiers or Afghan comrades and drawing inspiration from military symbols, I turned mundane materials into meaningful works of art.

Each piece, whether a table crafted from vehicle parts, or a painted wooden logo oversized and adorned on a wall, tells a story of resilience and creativity. Art became my refuge, a bridge between my construction background and newfound artistic expression. My journey from soldier to artist is a testament to the transformative power of creativity in the face of adversity.
