Story

I've always enjoyed music from a very young age. But when I was about 14 a friend of mine taught me a simple song on a keyboard. Then soon after I started playing guitar and just fell in love with music. Music became my life. Singing, playing, and now I am learning to do producing, etc... I love music! I also love to do parkour and freerunning and am part of a team called Urban Currents which is based in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

What is music to you? What does it give you?

A picture can paint or say a thousand words. A good piece of music can show a thousand pictures. It gives sooo much freedom and enjoyment to express myself. Music is life.

What is your music dream?

I hope to become a singer/composer that also does producing and movie scoring on the side.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Rather than people only listening to music through phones, ipods, mp3 players and their earphones and such, I would (and do) encourage people to make and create music or just sing and enjoy it. When you make music or sing it opens up sooo many doors. It gives you so much freedom. And even friendships that you may never have made otherwise. ;)

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

There are so many... Agnus Dei was definitely one of the big ones though.

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Owl City; Westlife; Backstreet Boys; Jump5; Philips, Craig and Dean; Chris Tomlin; Michael Card

What inspires you to make music?

Nature, my love for God, friendship, heartbreak, history lessons in school (I'm not joking!), fear, etc

What is the message you want to send with your music?

There is beauty all around. Even in the darkest of times, there is always hope, there is always beauty. And God is always there for you. :)

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Nervous at first, but when I get into the song... IT'S AWESOME!!!

What do you think of Drooble?

So far I like it.
