About Me

who writes in 3rd person on these things? i like to keep grounded by making sure that my music is exactly that - all about the music. none of this gilded prose or BS image crap that makes me out to be something i'm not. here's my story: 5 years ago, i moved from sunny california to arkansas, in the southern heart of america, to get a college degree. determined to see a different perspective of life, i discovered the best way to capture my thoughts on life was through songwriting, and i promptly picked up the guitar. 5 years later, after obtaining a degree and a year into my professional business career, i had a quarter-life crisis and on an impulse, quit my job, gave away everything i owned that wouldn't fit in my truck, and moved out to california. i slept on relatives' and friends' floors until i found a place with an old friend from high school in Los Angeles. This is where the real journey begins: to find out just how far the dream takes me, and just how good my music really is...live.love.music. . . I created my profile with Myspace Layouts+
