Biography

I am a product of the West Coast, from San Diego to Seattle Washington, then landing smack-dab in the middle of California. I am a survivor or illiteracy, missing five years of schooling as a child, (un-consecutively,) yet I ultimately graduated high school early. This little void of culturing manifested into a deeper appreciation for education, and most importantly, writing. I deliver my testimony of triumph to kids, speaking at high schools and so forth, in hopes to motivate them to pursue their dreams. What I strive for is to bring hope and understanding to an otherwise hopeless, misunderstood world; a realm of depression and self-destruction. Surviving a treacherous upbringing, I've found a light to follow, and "I'm gonna let it shine."

Inspiration

CS Lewis and Mark Twain are among many of my favored authors, but what inspires me to write most is my passion for documenting my observances; the unspoken truths about the world I am living in.
