About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Saving the world~ or destoying it~ one work of art at a time.

ABOUT ME

I like ketchup. Whilst in the pursuit of an Art Education degree, I moved to San Francisco (Ghirardelli's chocolate is an excellent muse). I am now lulled to bed in my flat on Haight St. by the holla's of the street folk living in the park across the street.

PHILOSOPHY

To filosofize is to talk, I prefer to walk

A fresh fish to the world of surfing, I enjoy cooking a meal or two (and if you live at altitude, I am well versed in additional cooking times)

I slept on my folks couch for almost all of high school (save the night I spent across the street in my neighbor's closet).
