About
Who I Am & What I'm Building

I'm Aberdeen Lewis, a founder, storyteller, and digital creator with a deep commitment to building platforms that connect people and amplify stories. My work lives at the intersection of communication, technology, and culture—where creativity meets purpose, and where every project becomes a voice for possibility. Over the years, I've explored multiple mediums: web development, poetry, music, video, and thoughtful digital design. All of them shape how I communicate, how I create, and how I inspire others to do the same.

FLEAP FLAPP is the heart of that mission: a platform designed for real-time connection, creative expression, and community. It's more than a social app. It's a space where people can show up as themselves—share their everyday lives, express their art, go live, build friendships, and grow their influence. I built it as a home for creativity and connection, especially for people who feel unseen or unheard in today's online world.

Along this journey, I've also been building HaitianArtWiki, a cultural-focused digital experience designed to preserve, showcase, and elevate artistic voices. I'm committed to creating platforms that reflect identity, celebrate resilience, and provide tools for people to rise. Whether through apps, storytelling, or design, my work is rooted in one core belief: that every person has something meaningful to share, and technology should help them share it.

What I'm building is bigger than a single app or website—it's an ecosystem of creativity, communication, and empowerment. My goal is to continue expanding these platforms, merging art and technology in ways that uplift communities, inspire self-expression, and give people everywhere the confidence to tell their stories boldly. This is the work that drives me every day, and it's only the beginning.

Platform
FLEAP FLAPP – Open Your World

FLEAP FLAPP is the platform I created to give people a true digital home—a space where stories, creativity, culture, and real-time connection can live together. It brings together video, live streaming, messaging, and a full marketplace into one seamless ecosystem built around people, not algorithms. Whether someone wants to entertain, teach, inspire, sell, or simply share a moment from their life, FLEAP FLAPP gives them a place where their voice matters and their presence is valued.

The platform was built with one purpose: to make connection feel human again. In a world filled with noise, filters, and competition for attention, I wanted to create a space where people can express themselves freely and be celebrated for who they are. FLEAP FLAPP is designed to help creators grow, discover their audience, collaborate with others, and build something meaningful—whether that's community, influence, or opportunity.

I work across the entire experience: product direction, communication, content strategy, branding, user flow, and the long-term vision of the ecosystem. Every part of FLEAP FLAPP reflects something I believe in—authenticity, storytelling, empowerment, and the power of creativity. My goal is simple: make it easier for people to show who they are, connect with others who understand them, and build a legacy with their ideas, passions, and talents.

As the platform continues to grow, so does its purpose. FLEAP FLAPP represents possibility— the idea that anyone, anywhere, can create something powerful when they're given the right tools, the right space, and the freedom to shine. And this is only the beginning of what we're building.

Why I Built FLEAP FLAPP: A Home for Stories, Creativity, and Connection

By Aberdeen Lewis • Updated 2025

Connection has followed me through every chapter of my life. It has been my lifeline in the hardest moments, my teacher when life felt confusing, and my motivation when the world expected me to stay small. Every time I lost something, connection brought something new. Every time I fell, connection helped me rise again. And every time I reinvented myself—across borders, across languages, across struggles—connection was the thread that kept me moving forward.

FLEAP FLAPP was born from that truth.

I built this platform because I know what it feels like to have a story and no place to tell it. I know what it feels like to have talent but no stage, passion but no audience, dreams but no doorway. I wanted to create a digital home where people could show up exactly as they are—without filters, without fear—and feel seen, heard, and valued.

FLEAP FLAPP isn't just another app to scroll through. To me, it's a living room, a community square, and a stage—all in one. A place where someone's music can inspire a stranger, where a simple video can uplift a whole community, where everyday life can turn into something powerful. It's a meeting point for dreamers, creators, storytellers, and people who just want to belong.

This blog is where I share the journey of building it—every breakthrough, every setback, every late night when the vision feels clear, and every morning when I'm learning to be a better communicator, leader, and human being. Building a platform from scratch isn't easy. It's messy. It's emotional. It stretches you. But it also transforms you.

FLEAP FLAPP is more than code and design. It's a piece of my story, a reflection of the people who shaped me, and a promise to the next generation: your voice matters, your creativity matters, and your story deserves a home.

This is just the beginning—and I'm grateful you're here with me as it grows.

Journey
More from the Journey

How digital communication changed my path

Digital communication didn't just open doors for me—it showed me doors I didn't even know existed. Before I learned the language of technology, I relied only on my voice, my presence, and my ability to navigate life through instinct and resilience. But the moment I discovered that ideas could travel faster than borders, faster than fear, and faster than doubt, everything shifted.

I realized that communication wasn't just talking—it was designing, creating, connecting, and giving shape to stories that deserved to be seen. Digital tools became my way of expressing the things I didn't always have words for. They became my bridge to new opportunities, new communities, and a new understanding of who I could become.

This change didn't happen overnight. It happened through late-night learning, failures that humbled me, and breakthroughs that felt like miracles. Digital communication gave me not just skills—but a path, a purpose, and a place to build something that matters.

Building a platform while rebuilding my life

FLEAP FLAPP wasn't created in a moment of comfort—it was created while I was rebuilding myself. My life was shifting. My identity was shifting. I was learning to stand again after losing things, places, and people I thought were permanent. In that chaos, creativity became therapy, ideas became survival, and building a platform became my way of healing.

Every line of code, every design decision, every feature—those weren't just technical tasks. They were steps forward. They were proof that even in moments of uncertainty, I could still build something powerful.

FLEAP FLAPP grew as I grew. It became a reflection of my resilience, my hope, and my belief that you can start your life again and still create something bigger than anything you imagined before. Rebuilding my life and building a platform weren't separate journeys—they were the same journey. One helped me heal. The other helped me rise.

Why stories still matter in a fast world

We live in a world where everything moves fast—videos, trends, conversations, even emotions. But stories refuse to be rushed. Stories remind us who we are. They slow time down. They bring meaning to moments that would disappear if we didn't take time to capture them.

No matter how fast the world moves, people still want to feel something real, something human, something that echoes long after the screen turns off. FLEAP FLAPP was built with that truth at its core—a place where everyday people can share the moments that shaped them, the dreams they're chasing, and the memories that hold weight.

Stories matter because they outlive the noise. They remind us that behind every profile is a full life unfolding. And they matter because someone, somewhere, needs the exact story you're holding inside.

The power of authentic connection

The world teaches us to perform, to pretend, to curate, and to hide the parts that make us human. But authentic connection—real connection—comes from showing up without the mask.

The most meaningful conversations I've ever had didn't come from perfection. They came from honesty—telling the truth about where I've been, what I've survived, and what I'm still learning. Every time I shared something real, someone else said, "Me too."

FLEAP FLAPP was designed for that kind of connection. Not the kind that makes you feel like you're competing or performing, but the kind that makes you feel seen, supported, and understood. Authentic connection builds confidence, community, and futures. It can change lives—because it changed mine.

Lessons from launching a platform

Launching FLEAP FLAPP taught me more about myself than any classroom, job, or book ever could. I learned that vision means nothing without patience, that setbacks are part of the blueprint, and that leadership starts with listening.

I discovered that building a platform is not just about technology—it's about people. Every user is a story. Every story is a responsibility. Every responsibility is an opportunity to serve with intention.

I learned that perfection is a trap, progress is a victory, and consistency is a superpower. Above all, I learned that when you're building something that comes from the heart, the right people will find it and believe in it with you. FLEAP FLAPP is still growing, and so am I. The real lesson? The journey is the success.
