About Me

Although I was born and raised in southern california, do not assume that I take life for granted. I have awesome parents that never pressured me nor pushed me to be a certain way. Their love and care encouraged me to make them happy and do the right things. I would say that I was fairly easy to raise since God implanted his mark on me even in a non-religious home. In high school I met some awesome people who brought me to church and introduced me to Jesus. Since then I have understood my purpose and have tried to stay away from the corruption of this world. Even though it is hard to look past all of the evil that surrounds us, focusing on the more pleasant things in this world can make life easier.Many people probably think that I am not an open-minded person because I am conservative and I have never partied, drank, or experimeted with drugs, but I am not that high-strung, judgemental, know-it-all christian that scares people away; I am still a person who struggles and I know that no one is perfect. I graduated from CSULB last year and received my degree in Buisness Administration with an Emphasis in Accounting. As I enter into the business world, I hope that I can help and inspire people around me. I just wish I had a bigger voice; not to impose my beliefs, only to show a different side.Besides God, my favorite refuge from everything that brings me down is music. I know I could not live without it. Since discovering Funeral For A Friend a couple of years ago, I have been greatly inspired by their awesome tunes and incredible lyrics. Music lifts me up and brings me to another place. If I weren't so shy, I would probably be singing somewhere in front of people... but for now, just singing along to my favorite bands is good enough.In essence, I like to think that I am unique to my generation. I know there are others who have never tried drinking or drugs; others who believe music is the greatest discovery of all time; and others who believe in a greater existence; but I do not think that I have met another person exactly like me <3

Pirates, just for being awesome; My mom, dad, and brother for teaching me how to live and what not to do; and Jesus for living a pure, selfless life and allowing me to keep believing that I'm doing the right thing..."They think it strange that you do not plunge with them into the same flood of dissipation (debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry), and they heap abuse on you. But they will have to give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead, so that they might be judged according to men in regard to the spirit." -1 Peter 4:46
