“i ams what i ams, and that’s all that i ams.” – popeye

| i’m secretly cynical and obviously jaded. we’re all damaged in one way or another. join the club. be a part of the team. there is no i in team. | i may not be the most versed, best spoken, most literate, relevant or responsible, but i adhere to the laws of common sense on a daily basis. | i’m intuitive, react on first instincts and gut feelings, and have my defenses up. seven layers to everything. | i like ambiguous, pride myself on stealth and double meanings and enjoy rabbit holes in logic at a fanciful whim. you get it, you get me. | above and below it all; i’m first and foremost, a singer. i am obligated to this ‘talent’. i’m driven to some sort of unattainable and arbitrary set standard. either way, i bobble on this Earth, taking each day as i’m given; if this is it – time is running out and standing still. | i’ve most recently just discovered the wide world of graphic design. go Art! | and i write. |

if you want to sum me up in so many words.
