CURRENT MISSION

LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST! My current mission, I suppose, would be to live a life and adventures worth sharing with the children of my future.

ABOUT ME

Greetings! My name is Jared. I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma, a splendid little corner of paradise hidden from the evils of the wicked world. I am a strange character. I have been painting and drawing for the majority of my life, and intend on pursuing some sort of career in that direction, whether for monetary gain or simply for pleasure.

I have been skateboarding for the last 10 years, and will not stop. In all of my travels past, present, and future, I intend on having my board with me (depending on the nature of my travels.) My skateboard has been my link into local culture on previous journeys, and I welcome anyone who skates to post up at my place for a taste of the Tulsa skate scene.

I have been playing guitar for about as long as I've been skating, and have a great passion for music. Hell, I have a great passion for many things. Come hang out, eat my cereal, crash on my sofa.

PHILOSOPHY

Love others always.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I'm amazing behind the wheel of a car...In a safety first, defensive sort of way. You can trust me with your life, basically.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Hmmmm...Acrylic paint, graphite, value, composition? Maybe a few scales on the guitar or the intro to Roundabout by Yes. A kickflip. I can teach you how to drive a car. I could teach you English, but you'll need to teach me your foreign tongue first! I can teach you how to wear a good pair of pants.

Learn: Always. I want to learn French and Spanish...At least I'd like to start there, but I just want to communicate with people.

Share: What's mine is yours.
