Have you ever felt like a misfit? Maybe at your school, in your town, or even in your own home?

Everybody's different, and we're not all made to follow the same path. Feeling like an outsider can be scary and isolating, and the dreams that we desire and the path that we want to take doesn’t always seem possible. Regardless of societal norms and external pressure, we all should have the chance to express ourselves and have access to the tools and education we need to do so.

In the spirit of my latest single release, I’m creating the Misfit Scholarship to help misfits like myself follow their creative dreams.

This scholarship is for the misfits in life, those that are brave enough to be different, to forge their own path, bring originality, perspective, and beauty to the world.

I can’t wait to see what you create!
