CURRENT MISSION

To experience all that the world has to offer wholeheartedly and to become more of the person I want to be.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Dallas, Texas. I have, regrettably so, never lived outside of Texas. I started playing music very early on and can play the guitar, bass, mandolin, ukulele, and piano a bit. I also love to read, both fiction and non-fiction. Even though I love people - their friendship, the music they create, the books they write, etc.- I may come off to be a little shy, but don't worry, chances are I'm enjoyin myself.I am an enthusiastic person who really loves life and I get along with people who are also passionate, whether its about something I am passionate about to or not!

PHILOSOPHY

Take responsibility of the person you are. Devote energy to personally cultivate your values and your sense of self. Try to approach things with a balanced perspective.
