ABOUT ME

I'm not a fan of talking about myself, but I'd like to think I am a good person with other peoples interests before mine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've done is getting in my 92 camero and driving to Arizona for school when I was 18. I didnt know a single person in Arizona and driving into the unknown was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my entire life. It was the first time being on my own.
