PERSONAL:
New York was an inspirational place for me. As a young child, I got to see everything from the Arms and Armor room at the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the fascinating graffiti murals that covered the city. The first two loves of my life were music and art. Even then, I couldn't decide which came first or second, so I did both. At two years old, I did my first scenescape of a boat sailing off an island with palm trees. By five years, I found The Rolling Stones and "Miss You" became my kid theme song. Yeah, imagine a five year old kid singing "I've been haulin' ass so long....".
