About Me

I'm going into my 4th semester at Azusa Pacific University. I'm majoring in Theology and minoring in Philosophy. I love living this close to LA, its my favorite city! This summer i've had to get used to living with my parents after escaping for 8 months...not cool. I love playing music, I've been getting into slide guitar recently and can't wait to further pursue that avenue. I go to weekly meetings with people that share a common interest of the love of the written word and they're some of the coolest people I've ever met in my life. I'd never be able to put enough of myself in this tiny little box to get you an accurate depiction of me so you and I should just hang out. Grace and Peace. PUT YOUR ABOUT ME SECTION HERE!
