I'm a small-town type of guy and a resident of Texas. I'm currently in college pursuing a bachelor's degree in Graphic Design with a minor in Business Administration. I almost always look beyond the surface of things and over-analyze them. I have an affinity for music, movies, and other forms of digital media. Because of my enigmatic tendency, I tend to speak volumes through my layouts, photography and art. I have also been told that I come alive on stage. Though a paradox in my own right considering my introverted personality has never really equated with the things I have accomplished and plan to achieve in life, I'm living proof that obstacles are only as big as one makes them out to be.
