I refresh my likes tab on Instagram and I get a notification that Kyle Kuzma liked my photo! I immediately run downstairs to tell my siblings the good news.

After a little over two weeks later, I decided to post my drawing on Twitter. I. After posting it I got a lot of nice feedback, some retweets--but then I got a notification:"Kyle Kuzma quoted your tweet"
I refresh my feed and I read Kuz's tweet "Nice!!!" and right below it was my drawing! It was the first time anyone had ever reposted my drawing and it felt really amazing!

I was scrolling through my Instagram feed and the Lakers posted a social recap video. I was going to just scroll through it but I decided to watch it instead. News about Thomas Bryant, then Larry Nance Jr., then Kyle Kuzma. Then I saw the words "Kuzma approves fan drawing." Definitely the highlight of my artistic career; being recognized by The Los Angeles Lakers!

So I reposted the clip of the video where my artwork was briefly displayed and I got so much love and support from my friends and family.. it was amazing to see such a positive reaction. I was beyond grateful! Thanks to both the Los Angeles Lakers and Kyle Kuzma for recognizing my artwork and allowing me to build a larger platform for my artwork!
