The Birth of Dr. Apples: A Leap into the Unknown

Creating Dr. Apples: The Journey was born out of a leap of faith, in more ways than one. Leaving a stable corporate job without a backup plan, especially as a single mother of three, was daunting, but I knew that staying would have trapped my creativity. Dr. Apples was initially just a sculpture—a 3-foot witch doctor I made for an art show. But when someone casually asked his name, and I blurted out “Dr. Apples,” I realized there was more to this character. That small moment planted a seed that would grow into an entire animated series, and sometimes, all it takes is one inspired question to change everything.
