I am a recent graduate from UCSD currently residing in San Clemente. Right now I work as a server at Pierside Kitchen and Bar, directly adjacent to the San Clemente pier, while I build up my portfolio to get more bigger and better music jobs as I work towards a lasting career. As a music composition major I have fallen in love with all aspects of sound and the influence it has on our bodies physically and mentally. I have been a singer ever since I can first remember and I had followed in my parents footsteps when I was in high school doing musicals as well as all and any music groups I had at my disposal. Since starting college I found a greater passion for the creation of music rather than the performance of it, although when I'm not producing, writing cinematic scores, or just writing music for auditorial enhancement of some visual experience, I still like to write songs that I can sing to, not to mention instrumental metal (My guitar will always be my baby haha). I pull my inspiration from all of the extraordinary adventures and experiences I have had and have shared with others throughout my life and continue to build on them. The repetitive trap of daily routine with money to be made and bills to pay has made finding time to have these experiences more difficult but I feel that they are just as important as life itself and essential to our existence. Not to say that I don't love my job, because I work with the coolest people in town in the best location with a perfect view of the ocean from the dining room, and I always look forward to creating a one of a kind dining experience for each and every one of my customers who are usually super chill and have amazing stories to tell too! 😄 I eventually want to travel the world and share all of my love and my experiences with each new person I meet and learn from them as well, creating lasting bonds that I can take with me to my death bed. I can't wait to meet all of you so we can share all that we have to offer of each other and grow as individuals. Life is full of so many experiences and people and the time we have is too short. Let's not waste it and share it with each other. Spread the love!!! ❤️❤️❤️
