About Me

I am all about Music, music production, audio engineering, oh did I mention music. I have an MPC 1000 and I am addicted to it. Portuguese + Irish + Gemini= crazy mixture. I thrive off of variety and change. I get bored easy. I am very open minded and will try anything at least once. Love meeting new people and learning new things.
I Travel when I have time. I enjoy learning about cultures (especially the brazilian culture) and languages,collecting vinyl, spinning drum and bass and other tunes. I love computers and learning new software. I am a techy geek. I am uber creative and love painting Abstract Art, drawing, taking pictures,Hanging out in NYC and Philly, dancing to drum and bass and SAMBA,going to shows, breakdancing, graffiti. My apartment is Feng Shui Happy with lots of PLANTS, Kelly Green, wheatgrass, and much more.
I am not afraid of change or to take a risk and just pick up and move, in fact I 've been itching to move somewhere lately.
I am experienced at Audio Engineering,and Production. I also have been working on some roots reggae,ragga, and D&B tracks. If you are interested in collaborating with me on something drop me a line.
