How can you become a Disney Imagineer. Truth is, I don’t know.

I’m self-taught. I submitted my work to Disney countless times—no reply.

Then, one day, Imagineering found me. Pure luck. But here’s what I’ve learned:

Do your best work, always. You never know who will see it.

That moment when a stubborn cap makes you question you place in the "age bracket"...

A bit of wisdom: Nobody learns more than the teacher.
My student’s design inspired me! 🌅
They created a stunning beach sunset scene, and with their blessing, I made my own version. Simplicity and softness, pure magic.

Hand-carved Ohana sign for a client’s poolside oasis at their Hawaiian getaway home—feels more like a 5-star resort! 🌺🌴 Crafted from Jelutong wood with a faux bamboo border and ‘leather’ ties—all carved to perfection! 🪵✨ #PolynesianArt #OhanaSign #TikiDecor

Hand-carved commission for a UK collector’s Swiss Alps getaway—wonky lines, no right angles, and cute little Tink hovering above! Love the depth; those mountains look miles away, but it's just an inch deep. Got lucky with the colors on this one! #Disney

Life Tip: watch life like it’s a weird movie. No judging, just observe. Engage with a good heart, let the rest go, and who knows? Maybe bliss sneaks in. Worth a shot, right?
