Interests:
Listening to music, playing guitar, reading magazines (Guitar World, Revolver, Hit Parader, Metal Edge, Metal Maniacs, Metal Hammer, Brave Words and Bloody Knuckles, Stuff, FHM, Mens Health, TIME, Mojo, Forbes, BusinessWeek, INC., and Entrepeneur) Newspaper (Wall street Journal, New Haven Register, Play, New Haven Advocate) watching TV, playing video games, writing poems, hanging out with friends, going to the movies, the mall, rollerblading, talking to and meeting new people and music bands on Myspace, going to church, coaching hockey, and working hard to become successful and living out my dreams. I also believe in selfpromotioning (weather if its coming up with ideas, designing logos, posters, bookcovers, magazines, clothes, design concepts, promoting what you believe in, and what's should be done about an important issue dealing with worldly causes, whatever! That's how people will get to know you! So start selling yourself to the masses, your ideas, thoughts, believes, and you will make something out of nothing! Remember, you can control the way your life turns out to be, or how you want it to be! You're bigger than you think! One person can make a difference! Remember that! All you need, is to believe in yourself and the rest will come!
About me:
As a B.S. graduate of Southern Connecticut State University, with a major in Graphic Design, I'm finding out that there are not too many job openings for first year graphic designers. So I'm looking towards other avenues for job opportunities. When I have a secure job, I want to go back to school part-time and get a certificate in Web Design and Photography. I have been very fascinated with art, literature, history, communication, pop culture, and digital music. I been part of the Student Arts League, Student Government Association, the Career Council, and Ultimate Frisbee Club at Southern. My goals in life are: I want to write a book, publish some of my poems, design my own clothing line, or design, write digital music, and to live life to the best of what I can experience (whatever that is!) I believe the idea toward communicating with other people is an important factor towards learning and the concept to better express yourself. That pushes me to move foreword in life, the idea that I have the ability express myself and communicate with others. Communicating with other people has endless possibilities, networking is one of those endless possibilities. For those who add me! Thank you! And if I didn't thank you, much thanx.. Much love and respect! If you leave me a comment, I'll definitely leave you a comment back!
Thanx again and rock on!
People I would like to me:
Fun loving, loves to take life by the horns, and try to stay true to themselves; Cool, crazy about life, loves music, and thinks that there's more to life then sitting home and playing video games. I believe people can make a big impact on someone's life, people who want to make a difference, become leaders, and want to change people's lives, are the kind of people I want to associate with. I believe in being honest, not holding back to anything to a certain degree, being open minded, sharing feelings, helping each other out, and having a good relationship with family members is important. Its always cool to meet and talk to new people and share cool ideals about anything here on Myspace.
Remember Don't sell yourself short!!!

My Pictures:
Most of the music I got into, was the music my parents had! Their music got me to love classic rock. I remember when I was little, how fun it was taking out the vinyl records out of the slips and putting them on the turn tables and playing them! That was so much fun! The memories!

Great book so far. The images are mind blowing madness of chaos and horror. I find myself mysteriously getting caught in the drama as I follow the characters on their horrifying journey.
People who motivate people to become better, Music, the power to believe, the human spirit, God, spiritual meditation, my little sister, my Nephew Vincent, my Dogs, people who give a dam about life, people that save lives, and those over coming addictions. People I admirer: Hockey legend, Wayne Gretzky, a leader by example, helping others around him become better; Tennis great, Andre Agassi, a true gentleman and ambassador to the sport and helping kids; and especially my family and friends who made me who I am today and guided me to do something in life and to be a better person. Oh, and people who don't give up!
