About Me

Currently my life has pretty much been work. Iwork at the Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery in Arizona, where I'm a workshop assistant, helping students with their guitars and just doing anything around the shop. I'm building my own guitars at the same time, I'm almost done with my first hollowbody. I'm living out here with my best buddy from NY Jeremy, and I've made a couple of other great friends. Mainly my best bud from school Lee, and most of the instructors from school. I'm planning on mainly building my own guitars, and I can't wait to get going.I'm originally from New York, where I grew up in the Hudson Valley my whole life. I'm a small town kid, from Highland Falls (and Fort Mongtomery) where everyone knows everyone. Just moved out here to Phoenix Arizona in August, so it's a pretty big change. It's been awesome though. I miss New York a lot but I miss my family the most, they're the best family I could ever have, and I love them more than anything in the world.

So uhh... about this whole immigration thing.

It pretty much pisses me off. I'll state right away that I really have no interest in politics, therefore I have no basis for judgement on that side of things. These are all just my opinions. And also...

My idea of what maturity is.
