coffee with a creative: noah

This week’s guest on Coffee with a Creative is an old friend of mine, Noah Clark. By old, I mean that we’ve seen each other during our most awkward days. I suppose that is what makes our friendship so wonderful though--we’ve seen our growth and get excited for each other whenever we’ve accomplished a goal of ours. There is something very special about having a friendship like this. So it is an absolute pleasure to introduce you to Noah, an aspiring screenwriter, and let you all witness his greatness.

coffee with a creative: amanda

Although creative in many ways, Amanda’s heart and soul reside in her love of books and writing. A twenty-six-year-old New Jersey native, she has had the opportunity to view the world through so many different lenses because of her passion for storytelling and everything that encompasses it. She received her bachelor's degree in creative writing and has since worked as a writer on multiple different platforms.

coffee with a creative: channette

Chan is what you could call a multifaceted creative, although she has a specific focus on the video format (Youtube and TikTok). It makes perfect sense if you know Chan and how incredibly charismatic and full of life she is. In front of a camera, she commands the screen and makes you fall in love with her over and over again. She truly is so special. Not only to me but also to the Youtube and TikTok community, specifically the LGBTQ+ and Latina communities. As a proud lesbian that was born and raised in Puerto Rico, Chan can help so many people understand how they are feeling and learn how to be proud of their heritage and their identity.

coffee with a creative: an initiative to showcase creators around the globe!

That was where the idea for “coffee with a creative” came from. As a creative, I’ve been surrounded by so many other creative people. So many humans with talents beyond measure and hearts so big…and so many of them deserve the world. So “coffee with a creative” came from me wanting to showcase these creatives…to shed light on their talents and hopefully help others discover them too.

grief.

When somebody dies, you get every person in your life telling you that. They say that over time, you’ll feel better. They also say things like “your dad loved you,” as if I didn’t already know that. I know that sometimes it is people’s initial reactions and they don’t know what else to say…but trust me. I don’t need some person that never came over during my dad’s illness to tell me that my dad loved me as if I doubted that.
