ABOUT ME

I am an acting student, currently attending college at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. I am also a musician who travels and records here and there. I spend my fall and winter in Provo and my summer in the Southwest Missouri area. I like to smile and laugh and help people. I don't drink or smoke. If you stay with me, please don't bring alcohol or drugs. If you smoke cigarettes please still feel welcome to stay with me, you will just be asked to smoke outside. If you come stay with me we will work to have a truly enjoyable experience. Often times during the school year I am in rehearsals but we should be able to find time to see the town.

Books

The Book of Mormon
www.mormon.org

I am not interested in proselytizing people who come to stay with me but I am interested in sharing what has blessed my life with those who ask. This is an ancient book of scripture comparable to the Bible. It is a collection of the writings of prophets as they receive revelations from God and teach the people. This book has influenced my life more than any other. Joseph Smith, a modern day prophet and the book's translator, said of the book, "I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on the earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book." I know that what he says is true because I have experienced it.

This book changed my life. This is a must read for every artist no matter who you are. It will bless your life and help you understand why we all have artistic struggles and how to break through them.
