I graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA with a degree in Film Scoring; now to make something other than desperate starvation and poverty happen in my hometown of Southern California. Being away from LA has helped me gain a new perspective on how the rest of the country thinks and feels, and has taught me this: I hate the rest of the country. California is like America, only better.
I can't take a good picture to save my life. AIM is pilgrim snow -- if you don't have anything interesting to say then be prepared for a boring, one-sided conversation that will end in a mutually-awkward fashion.
I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley, and thus have a lot of Asian influence in my life. My California upbringing has made me comfortable with street signs in Spanish, Korean, and Chinese, made exotic and delicious food a commonplace staple, and absolutely spoiled me with a lifetime of fresh produce.
I like to cook and learn how to cook. I make excellent curry. I'm taking languages at PCC right now - it's sort of a hobby; so far I've studied Japanese, French, Italian, Mandarin, and Spanish.
This is all, naturally, pleasant distraction while I get my music together... right? I just moved into a cottage in charming and historic Echo Park, where I spend each day enjoying the neighborhood while totally not being shot at. I totally dig this neighborhood.
I spent a month in Japan last summer and it cost me jobs, status, money, and someone I loved. I would do it all again in a second.
Facebook MySpace, so if you know my full name, add me there. ;)
