About Me

..

So The Incas were revolutionizing astronomy, government, math &agriculture... when all of a sudden a drunk spaniard docked & proceededto pillage & murder that indigenous culture & way of life.

Fast-fwd a few centuries up that bloodline to a zygote in Líma,Perú. ~10 yrs later hopped a continent up north to Queens, NYCduring the time of graffittied train cars, ghetto blasters & electro Hip-Hop.

Served in the Marine Corps infantry reserves when I was younger anddirectionless...after college took a mind-blowing trip around theworld . Currently a multimedia designer - www.bringthenoize.com .. & Hip-Hop break beatdrummer
