About Me

Passionate, out-going, sarcastic, sincere, optimistic, impatient, and incredibly dorky--I'm a proud Midwesterner hailing from Duluth, MN (birthplace of Bob Dylan). I came to LA to study Music at USC--although I'm not spoiled, I don't drive a daddy-bought BMW, and I don't have fake anything. I'm still out in LA and work in the honorable and ethical music business. I abhor awkwardness, anyone who thinks they are better than anyone else, and when people confuse "your" with "you're". I don't embarrass easily, although there are many situations where I probably should, and I really like the word "verbatim".I love singing and all music in general. I am a hopeless romantic...hopeful at times. Impressed by creative minds, warm hearts, and clever wit...and I'm a sucker for musicians. I won't eat anything that once had a face and I put ketchup on everything.By the way...PLEASE don't add me as a "friend" if you don't actually know me or can't take the time to message me explaining why you might want to know me.
