About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Watch. Listen. Jump In.

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going guy, music and words are my passions in life. Love having good times with friends, whether it's going out and being silly to conversations about the world in alleyways.

PHILOSOPHY

Be true to yourself, and kind to others. Life is about learning when to let go and hold on, so choose wisely. Oh and always have more dessert than you should.
