CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Quiet sometimes/goofy/good sense of humor. I like a good time (partying fun); but even more than that I love adventures, exploring, and sober euphoria... I love going to shows and concerts, feeling good vibes from people and places, independence, camaraderie. Oh! Those moments when everything stops and all of these ideas and visions and words pop into your mind. I write, I try to take photographs, I can plan one entire Elliott Smith song on guitar.

PHILOSOPHY

"Learn your craft, and persist. The rest, as Henry James said, is the madness of art." Kim Addonizio
