He has also developed a brand of tees called Butch Queen with over 90 designs on his society6, not including his regular designed tees. He has a loud political stance since his life is "political" as a member of the LGBTQA+ Community, Latino Community, and Artist where we have to justify our craft, even though our world would be less entertaining or colorful without us.

Life is too short to be caught up in sadness, forgive and forget the small things, but it's perfectly fine to protect yourself from harmful situations including negative people. Just remember to share the love, but also remember to love yourself.  Never sacrifice your happiness for others, but first look into what happiness means to you. In his case, it's giving back somehow and providing a safe space to be yourself.
