Music

I've been playing music for as long as I can remember. At first, it felt like a burden. I hated practice, and I hated recitals. But now I've come to realize I posses a gift few have and many want. Music is the perfect outlet for my creativity. So thank you, Mom, for forcing me to play piano so many years ago.

Instruments I Can Play

  1. Guitar
  2. Piano
  3. Violin
  4. Banjo
  5. Mandolin
  6. Anything that makes sound

Film

I am a movie buff. Everything about film fascinates me. Back in high school, my friends and I would make short films. Some of them are best left unseen by anyone else. Despite my poorly made movies, I pride myself on having a keen eye for good films.

Movies I Like

In case you haven't noticed the trend, I tend to like movies directed by Wes Anderson or starring Bill Murray.
