About Me

Born in Tokyo, grew up in Jersey, loved Seattle, now living my life happily in Los Angeles.I've been collecting records for over 10 years and I can be found diggin' through various record shops (I spend most my hours at Record Surplus and Amoeba).I surround myself with positive, talented people from all walks of life, who share a common drive and passion for life.I enjoy cooking and bbq'ing. There's nothing better than sharing good food and good music with great friends!Oh yeah, I'm addicted to cool, minty, Japanese eye drops...

My Interests

Graphic Arts. Photography. Sound systems. The ocean. The mountains. Stencils. Outdoor parties. BBQ's. Lacrosse, basketball, tennis. Surfing. Handwritten letters and postcards.
