Currently livin the dream....

About Me

I grew up in a small town in North Central Florida called Chielfland. We're known for watermelons,peanuts, tobacco, FFA, Suwanee River, ralph's burgers, Bar-B-Q Bills, and small town football.. It's also a great place to see the stars since there is no building over 3 stories withing 40 minutes. One of those towns where Super Wal-Mart is the most happening thing. You can hear the crickets at night and your not cool if you don't own a truck, chew or dip. Went to college in West Palm Beach and got a degree also knowns as my insurance policy. j/k. I then moved to Atlanta to pursue music. Nice change. Right now Georgia's on my mind. Oh yea, and another thing about me is I love Sports authority. My car trunk is always filled with the following...Golf Clubs, Tennis Rackets, Fishing Pole, Bowling Shoes, Kicking Shoes and football (6 to be exact).If the music doesn't work out, I'm gonna try out as kicker for the falcons).Random things but u never know when you may get the urge....Plus my newest item as of April is a canoe. The chattahoochee and the canoe is a great combo. And last but not least, braves games. Especially the pitching cage to see how fast you can throw. I was hoping my dream of throwing in the 80s would occur but a miracle still hasn't happened yet. If it does, I'm giving up music and gonna pitch. I think the afro will be my trademark look. Rumor has it that being a lefty and throwing it in the 80s can get u in the majors. Will let u know if that day comes. Maybe I should work out consistently? haha

My Interests

I've always been into music. Some say it runs in the family. I'm in a band called Georgia (georgiatheband.com), which is based out of Atlanta. It's made up of me, 2 brothers, and a friend we've adopted into the family. I'm also really into outdoor activities such as camping, fishing, hiking, and golf (switch hitter, lefty and righty). But I need to make more time for those things..Life is a crazy.Oh have i mentioned food...Random BBQ joints, Sweet Tea, Chickin N Dumplins, Turnip Greens, Grits, Southern food, & seafood. Current favorite Meat n 2 sides joint in Atlanta is Our Way Cafe.

I'd like to meet:

People that are real and genuine. Something hard to come by.... GEORGIA
