I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Wellllllllllll, I am a Christian. Heck yes. I love to play the drums. In fact, I have a Bachelor's Degree in Modern Music Ministry - Percussion (Drumset) from Visible School. Yes, indeed. What else... I love anything by Tom Hanks. Easily the greatest actor of the past 20 years. Easily. I freaking LOVE anything by Muse. Um, drumming is cool. So is God.Living in Memphis currently.

My Interests

I'm interested in God, drums, drums, God, drums. I love music. Love to play it, and obviously listen to it.
