Background/Bio:

I grow up here in Utah, camping, fishing, longboarding down the canyon, and skateboarding. I got addicted to drugs and was unable to stop until I came to prison in 2017. I was 27 at the time. On a lighter topic, I am working on my mental and physical health. I started drawing about four months ago, just before I got out of max. I love being able to send cards and pictures. I have nine more years until I see the board and want to put myself out there. I want to show people that one can make changes in one's life with practice, hard work, and a little risk. I use my art to express myself and gauge how I'm doing. I see myself getting better and better. I would love the opportunity to send cards and poems to new friends.

Hobbies/Interests/Goals:

My favorite things are talking with friends and family and jogging in the yard or up and down the stairs for 30 minutes to clear my head. It's a meditation for me. I enjoy drawing for people I care about and myself. Of course, I love making a good spread once or twice a week. I love to listen to music, and my favorite band is Pink Floyd. I am also very interested in starting college courses. I'm into self-improvement, and I'm mostly happy and upbeat. I hope you enjoy my work and that we can build a friendship.
