Schools

Networking

  • I have edited, produced, and filmed a feature-length documentary. I would be interested in collaborating with other individuals for future projects.

  • I am a seasoned producer with a thorough knowledge of beats. I would describe my style as a combination between Dub, Hip-Hop, House, and Soul.

  • I am a seasoned DJ. Let me share some of my mixes with you.

Blurbs

About me:

I'm an introverted guy who doesn't talk that much. That's because I'm usually thinking about something. Possibly a song in my head, possibly a philosophical idea, or maybe I'm just generally bored with my surroundings. I would consider myself a spiritual individual, and like to have people around me with strong morals and principles. What are you trying to achieve? What's your goal? How can we work together to make the world a better place? I enjoy reading, music production, writing, and mixing on my turntables. By training I am a teacher, but have interests in just about every discipline. I think an intelligent person should know a little of everything. Want to learn more about me, read my writings, listen to my music, and watch some of my films? Visit my personal webpage. All of the songs in my playlist were produced by me.

Who I'd like to meet:

I like to meet other interesting people. People who aren't afraid to take risks and push boundaries. The crazy ones.
