About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To create tons of things, hoping a few masterpieces show up.

ABOUT ME

An active, quietly wild person who humbly enjoys all walks of life. I favor playing sports as opposed to talking about them, making art as opposed to debating it, and especially love to find inspiration in new mediums. Fairly handy, and provides quality craftsmanship in most materials. I will try to spend quality time doing what ever it is that preoccupies myself, even if it is being lazy in the sun.

PHILOSOPHY

I live in order to observe the future; predicting some areas of it, and actively substantiating other areas.

Interests

I enjoy sculpting, sometimes painting, always surfing (waves), learning anything with scientific significance, traveling, I love basketball, am just getting into some fūtball, just getting into climbing (bouldering), and will be drawing at any point in the day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) I swam out in a huge Nor'easter storm in Virginia Beach and tried to ride 7+ meter waves, after only having surfed for one season. The waves were so far beyond my skill level that I wasn't sure if I could paddle back in, much less stand up on one. It was so stupid and so foreign of an emotion for me to sit on a board that could float over top of houses, that I will never forget the power of nature. It was the most humbling thing I have ever done.

2) I will have experienced my life, and love, which I am forever greatful.

Teach, Learn, Share

Aesthetics begins with having an open mind, then it becomes a matter of innovation as well as beauty.
