Today I wanted to highlight and point out someone who has been mentoring me since the beginning of Unique Ambitions. Mike aka AZNmade is an artist based out of Oak Cliff in Dallas. AZNmike is a graphic designer and artist who has done work for Urban Outfitters, Converse, as well as Oaktopia. He designs three-dimensional figures called hurricanes, which are based off of individuality. Each design is different from the next, as two snowflakes are never alike. This message can be part of a bigger message about individuality. People should be themselves, embrace the differences, and create for themselves. One could interpret the hurricanes as a symbol of being different while being part of the same structures. AZNmike is someone who I could relate to because he also understood the different mentality that immigrants have. He is always trying to find ways to grow; his work ethic is relentless and is always humble to whoever he talks to. I felt like I was just talking to a friend, which made it easier to ask for guidance. We could talk about the similarities we had growing up because we had similar experiences in school. I am grateful for him mentoring me in the right direction. He has multiple events happening in Dallas, which you should all check out. You can find him on instagram (@aznmade) to stay updated with his work!
