You can't give up hope just cuz it's hopeless

About Me


.. I was born and raised in Los Angeles. I grew up in Highland Park and hung out with artists, lowriders & stoners. As a teen I was inspired to run off to Hollywood in search of adventure. After falling down the rabbit hole into the early punk scene, I set out on a journey through the LA underground that continues to this day.

Officer Simmons Funeral

I am amazed that today in Los Angeles the local channels dedicated hours to the funeral of fallen SWAT Officer Simmons. A man who gave selflessly to his community. I am so sorry for the loss, but am ...
