I will try to make this as brief of an overview of myself as possible.
My life consists of three main things. I am a turntablist, designer and skateboarder. All three of those are my professions.
- I am the Creative Director, and lead graphic designer for an advertising agency in downtown Denver.
- I do tours with music and skateboarding throughout the globe.
I truly am thankful.
I live in Denver Colorado (best state in the U.S) but am rarely home.
Touring takes up most my days, which is really a good thing because I
love to travel. Places ive visited recently would be:
Osaka and Nagoya Japan, Brazil, Athens and Theslonikki Greece, Vicenza,
Udine, Vigevano, Rome and Milan Italy, Switzerland, Munich and Berlin
Germany, London and Bristol UK, Paris and Montpellier France, Prague
Czech Republic, Latvia, Copenhagen Denmark, Stockholm Sweden, Estonia
and many many more I dont remember.
More personal; I really try to be a kind person everyday. I am very
RARELY angry or mad, because I dont see a real reason to express those
form of emotions. I like to always look towards the good in any
situation. Also, I adore kids. Oh, and I love peanut butter.
