Overview
About Me
I'm an artist, educator, and metalworker (mostly TIG welding and Machining), and I can fix bicycles.
I'm looking to learn Chinese and teach English.
I'm from San Francisco and the area around it. I like being outdoors and backpacking. I like electronic and metal music.
I lived in Canada for 6 years for University but since then I've developed my abilities as a tradesperson and artist.
Let me know if you want to look at my work!
Interests
Electric guitar is another passion of mine I haven't been able to do lately either, but I rock a yamaha (guitar) and a cube (amp) when I can. I like delay riffs.
Art is something I'd like to learn about in school and pursue, more specifically dry media, so drawings that have contrast and hard lines, I really like "neotraditional" tattoo "art".
