Career Path



My career path serves as a testament to the principles that guide me. Each step I have taken has been influenced by a strong commitment to integrity, excellence, and continuous growth. These core values have not only shaped my professional decisions but have also defined the way I engage with colleagues, clients, and the broader community. As I navigate through various roles and responsibilities, I remain steadfast in my belief that my actions should consistently align with these foundational beliefs.

The trajectory of my professional life embodies the values I hold dear. Throughout my experiences, I have prioritized authenticity, collaboration, and a dedication to lifelong learning. These guiding principles have informed my approach to challenges and opportunities alike, allowing me to cultivate meaningful relationships and contribute positively to the organizations I have been a part of. By adhering to these values, I strive to create an environment where innovation and mutual respect flourish.


My work history is a clear representation of the values that I cherish. Each position I have occupied has been approached with a focus on ethical practices, a commitment to quality, and an eagerness to adapt and evolve. This alignment between my professional endeavors and my personal beliefs has not only enhanced my effectiveness in various roles but has also reinforced my passion for making a meaningful impact in my field. Ultimately, I believe that a values-driven career leads to greater fulfillment and success, both personally and professionally.

“A career path can be defined as a series of jobs that lead you closer to your career goals and vision for life.”


It serves as a visual metaphor for the intricate journey of self-discovery and ambition that individuals embark upon in their professional lives. The vibrant colors not only draw the viewer in but also evoke a sense of tranquility and energy, symbolizing the dual nature of pursuing one's career goals. The abstract design invites contemplation, allowing each observer to derive their own meaning from the interplay of colors and forms.


The choice of blue in the painting represents calmness and stability, essential qualities for navigating the often tumultuous waters of career development. In contrast, the green tones signify growth and vitality, reflecting the dynamic nature of personal and professional evolution. Together, these colors create a harmonious balance that mirrors the essential components of a successful career: passion, perseverance, and adaptability. The abstract elements of the artwork encourage viewers to reflect on their own career paths, prompting them to consider how their experiences and aspirations shape their journey.


"Career Path" is not just a piece of art; it is an invitation to explore the complexities of ambition and self-identity. The abstract nature of the painting allows for a multitude of interpretations.

Golden Orb of Inspiration

  Golden Orb of Inspiration. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney  Last night, as I gazed up at the sky, the moon captured my attention with its luminous glow. It was a sight that stirred my imagination and inspired me to create. I decided to channel that inspiration into my digital abstract painting, where I chose to incorporate various shades of yellow. The warmth of the color seemed to echo the moon's gentle radiance, allowing me to express the beauty I felt in that moment.

Narrative Layers

    Narrative Layers. Digital art created on canvas. October 2, 2024. Afrika Abney  I created Narrative Layers, a digital abstract painting, using layered brushstrokes and vibrant colors with the focal color - red. Red represents determination, courage, resilience, and creativity.  According to my research, “layered brushstrokes serve as a powerful representation of the different phases of artistic expression and emotional depth. Each stroke adds a unique texture and dimension, reflecting my evolving thoughts and feelings throughout the creative process. This technique not only enhances the visual appeal of the piece but also invites viewers to engage with the underlying story that unfolds within the layers.  Ultimately, the culmination of these layered brushstrokes results in a finished piece that resonates with a profound narrative.”

Resilience Reflections

  Resilience Reflections. Digital art created on canvas. September 27, 2024. Afrika Abney Looking back on the difficulties I faced in the past, one particular experience stands out vividly: the autumn of 2020 during the pandemic in Washington, D.C. This period was marked by a unique set of challenges that tested my resilience and adaptability. The atmosphere was heavy with uncertainty as the world grappled with the implications of the COVID-19 crisis, and the vibrant city I once knew was transformed into a quieter, more subdued environment. “The Autumn of 2020 in Washington, D.C., was marked by the unprecedented challenges posed by the global pandemic. As the leaves began to change color and the air turned crisp, the city, usually bustling with activity, found itself navigating a new reality. Public spaces that once thrived with tourists and locals alike were now quieter, with many events canceled or modified to adhere to health guidelines. The vibrant energy of the capital was tem...
