My Interests

I am a DJ/PRODUCER/PHOTOGRAPHER and occasionally dip my hands in Fashion Design, FILM, and Graphic Design. I just got back from good 'ol AUSTIN TEXAS where i lived for 3 years. before that, i spent a year in San Antonio but i was born and raised in EL PASO (see pictures for visual aids). Soon (more like 5,748 years) I plan to be done with school and have a few degrees in FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY, SOUND RECORDING TECHNOLOGY, and LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES amongst other things. You might find me: at a party DJing and making people dance til 4 am, recording in my home studio, behind my APPLE lappy, working on the ON OUR WAY TO STARDOM clothing line..... And if by some chance I'm not, I'm railing Shakira. click on " SOUNDTRACK " from my top ocho to hear some stuff and keep up with my music life ... (once you're DONE with this page)

I'd like to meet:

Shakira, Irving Penn, Pharrell & Chad, whoever created chess, and GOD (not necessarily in that order)

Music:

Like 5 people have told me I really need to get into entourage cause it's "so my show" ive never seen it but if my friends are that gung ho about getting me to watch it i guess it should be on this list. oh... and smallville
