I am here for Friends

About Me

Don't come in if ya don't swing!! DREAM BIG, LIVE FOR TODAY, AND ALWAYS HAVE HOPE IN YOUR HEART!Making music UNIVERSAL!!! HAHA!I work for Universal Music Latino, and work in the radio promotion division...basically I get my artists' music on the radio and deal with their promotion itineraries and various radio outlets throughout the West Coast. I am a member of an amazing organization and am learning from the best."Everything Is Self-Evident", Rene Descartes"I am here for a purpose & that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply ALL of my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy!"........Hi/hola! I truly enjoy and appreciate music and I go to a lot of shows. I used to work in the music and fashion biz, and for the past 7 years or so I have been fortunate enought to have excelled in the Los Angeles real estate market. BUT NOW, I'M BACK IN MUSIC...AND THERE'S NO STOPPING ME NOW!!! I believe good relationships, accurate information, and excellent communication are three of the main reasons I am successful, yet I endeavor to learn more each and every day.I enjoy live music,Dylan Thomas and Pablo Neruda, I like to travel for whatever reason (biz or pleasure) and need to lose like 30lbs! I'm hoping to catch up with old friends(perhaps meet a couple new ones), waste some precious time, and stay on the cutting edge of music by tracking some of my favorite artists via myspace.Myspace is pretty much going to dictate the future of media/entertainment. Broadband/on demand films, music downloads, etc. The traditional networks better watch out! Why do you think Rupert Murdoch bought this thing!

You Have a Choleric Temperament
You are a person of great enthusiasm - easily excited by many things.
Unsatisfied by the ordinary, you are reaching for an epic, extraordinary life.
You want the best. The best life. The best love. The best reputation.

You posses a sharp and keen intellect. Your mind is your primary weapon.
Strong willed, nothing can keep you down. Your energy can break down any wall.
You're an instantly passionate person - and this passion gives you an intoxicating power over others.

At your worst, you are a narcissist. Full of yourself and even proud of your faults.
Stubborn and opinionated, you know what you think is right. End of discussion.
A bit of a misanthrope, you often see others as weak, ignorant, and inferior. What Temperment Are You?
