The Man With A Plan

Bio:

I am unapologetically myself and love most the people who share that awesome autonomy, who think for themselves and follow the high road in life.

I have risen from suffering and madness to clarity and vision. My personal history is an intimate documentary of overcoming extreme adversity and turning my greatest weaknesses into a miraculous strength.

I value kindness, honesty, beauty and inspiration. I am patient with those who genuinely seek learning, and intolerant of ignorance. I am a warrior, a healer and a teacher.

I want to master myself and become a highly inspiring writer of verse, prose and screenplays, an infamous electronic musician, and a successful director/producer.
