On Joining Verci

NYC is such a creative city. Whether it be fashion, music, writing, cuisine, or photography, NYC excels at it.

This is what attracted me to the city in the first place.

When I first moved here, I was thinking of how I can plug myself into NYCs vibrant creative scene.

I saw Verci as that opportunity.

I joined as part of Season 0 in November of 22. And over the past 2+ years: I’ve met writers, community organizers, film makers, musicians, photographers, entrepreneurs, creative technolgists, fashion designers, chefs, and more.

For years, I knew I didn’t want to follow the traditional path. I wanted to live life on my own terms, free from conventional expectations. I often felt like an outsider—a Martian among my peers—because they didn’t understand what I was goin for.

But at Verci, I don’t need to explain myself. The people I meet just know.

We’re all on that unconventional journey, chasing our dreams and pushing boundaries.

Verci has been the cornerstone of my NYC experience.

It’s where I started the Olive Tree Writing Club, met some of my closest friends, and expanded my ceiling of what’s possible.
