age : 26

past : i grew up in a small down in tennessee. as a child my favorite hobbies were horses and my love for drawing. i graduated high school in 1998 and two years later moved to murfreesboro, tn to attend college. my love for drawing quickly turned towards a new form of media on the computer which i previously had little to no experience with. i had a few classes dealing with media design, but i would consider most of my education as being self taught.

present : i currently live in murfreesboro which is exactly the center of the state which is a perfect location so that i may meet anyone that is relatively close. most of my time is spent on my computer designing. i currently use macromedia and adobe tools. aside from design i enjoy music with a passion, much like computers i see it being with me for life. it seems i'm just now starting life and i look foward to the road ahead.
