About Me

I Live, Work, and Play in music and video production.
I am in a band called Blue Eyed Fools .
It is a combination of music and visuals. Stories are told with both. I play guitar and write most of the music. My best friend Patrick is the other songwriter. Together and alone we have produced, directed and edited many professional and independent videos & films. In addition I record other up and coming bands in our studio. I also Promote Events , DJ and VJ under the name Proto. Good times as Proto. I am very close with my family and I love to laugh out loud. With a twisted sense of humor, and a sometimes dark view of the world, I have the deepest respect for life and would do anything for those I love.

My Interests

I love the water. I love fresh air, mountains, and green grass. I like sunshine. I dig cloudy moody ass days. I really love the night. The Moon. Sunsets are pretty but Sunrise is EPIC.
I seek the truth to some "unanswered questions." I believe some strange shit is upon us at the foot of the Circle K.
TRULY.
INVESTIGATE.
Look into it. Ask your own questions. Fear not the "Red Pill" for the truth will set you free.
