About Me

"I don't try to be different, I am" is one of my favorite rap lines and sort of a credo throughout my life. Once I accepted that i was on some other shit and became comfortable in my own skin my world has opened to a cast of characters and great friends who have kept me motivated and enriched my life.

Just moved back to South Jerz after 10+ years in Denver. I'm in pursuit of a library science degree, but I'm just as driven by music and writing. Music is my life. Its an expensive habit, I'd probably spend less money as a drug addict. Very excited to be living back on the east coast. When I left my life was a box of a hometown, now I'm able to explore the east and appreciate what I've left behind for so many years. Brooklyn, I'll be proposing someday soon.

You can be my friend if...

Fuck the dumb makes sense to you.
