About Me

Um. I just moved to Los Angeles. I sit in front of my computer mad hours a day. I work TONS, I dont get paid for most of it. I party TONS. Uh.. I dont get paid for that either. Some how I get by. I love making art. I am totally critical of anything musical. I wish art makers and musican's were more honest. I can see through the fakery.
uh... I made these movies. Check out the trailers below.
Add them to your friends if you like what you see . Spread the word.
Oh yeah. I want babies.

My Interests

music, film making, dancing, making art.

I'd like to meet:

Just be nice to me.

Music:

I like all kinds of music. I used think that was lame to say. people who like all kinds of music often don't like any kind of music specifically. thats not the case with me. I grew up listening to punk, hardcore and hip hop. now I listen to all that as well as jazz, funk,house and all kinds of rock. I have explored a lot and don't really ever want to limit myself again.

Movies:

I am really into documentaries and movies that make you think. I also like movie that are emotionally challenging.

sound and fury

streetwise

a cry for jazz

um...
