My Bio
Where I am From;

I was born in Stockton, California and raised in Tuolumne County, which is in the foothills and mountain areas of California due west of Yosemite National Park. My mom was in school to be a Nurse most of my childhood; and my dad was a jack of all trades who worked for the City and County of San Francisco at the Moccasin Creek Power plant.


After High School Graduation, the mountainous rural area I grew up in was being overrun by Southern Californians (don't get me wrong not all southern Californians are bad people, in fact some of my best friends live there; but more than 70% of these transplants were doing so to get their children away from the "gang problems" in southern California in the 90s; the issue was that many of these kids just reestablished themselves in my peaceful little town and it just went downhill quick) and it was plunging the area into a very bad economy. I could deal with it at the time and I really needed to get away and get my head on straight. I was drinking way too much and I had gotten into other things that were very bad for my grove.

So, I got into a bunch of roaming whilst I was looking for myself in a spiritual sense. I worked at the Grand Canyon and Yosemite for a few years and then ended up in Whatcom County, Washington with a few friends. The plan was to be in the area for a year and then by then have gotten enough cash to together to buy a Van and go touring with the Grateful Dead. Unfortunately, the summer that we were ready to go, Jerry Died:(.

Long story short, They Left, I stayed.

Who I am;

I am honest to a fault; loyal to my friends and family; Kind to people who are kind to me; giving and sharing; open-minded; smart; Intellectual; and Well Read. I am trustworthy, charming (I am told); peaceful; and generally happy. I am good listener, a great counselor, and an excellent negotiator and Problem Solver.

I don’t really drink; I like to taste wine and good alcohols, just not much for the whole drunk experience. I have a very firm no pills, powders, or needles policy (I have no tolerance for coke, crack, meth, heroin, taking pharmaceuticals without medical need, or other Druggie BS); that being said I am pro-cannabis, but no longer smoke; I quit smoking cigarettes in January 2012; and on occasion I like to use certain herbs for vision-questing and religious needs, but it is usually a very rare and private experience.


What I can do;

I am an artist (the picture in my background was hand drawn on my tablet PC and colored by me. If you like it I can send more with e-mails but they won’t let me post it in my profile pictures.).

I own and play an Ovation round back guitar that I got with proceeds of building a computer and a database for a local business. I am also a skilled singer and routinely play and sing at local venues.

I have Four Associates Degrees in Electronics which I earned all at the same time.

I am also a skilled cook.

A Few Years Back, I embarked on a quest to see america as a Commercial Truck Driver....it has been interesting


This is really only the tip of the proverbial iceberg, I guess I ended up being a jack of all trades like my father.
