MY LIFE SHORTLY SUMED UP

I was born on April, 4th 1993 in Portland, Oregon. My mom was a bartender and artist. My dad was a contractor and a drummer for a popular local band, Naked Violence. My sister, born about 6 years earlier to an evil man, was taken away by our grandmother only a couple of years after I was born. My mom had really been through a lot at this point and to have her first child taken away really made her hold onto me tight. Around this time my parents also split up, I would start seeing my dad every other weekend and I wouldn't build a relationship with my sister until over a decade later. My sister would not be allowed to see us until she got emancipated at 16 years old. It ain't all bad though. My mom and I went to Mexico for a month when I was only 4 years old. Lol. Pretty sure the dudes who invited her were cartel... Haha, maybe. Apparently, I was driving wave runners and running around naked speaking Spanish. Hahaha. Mexico holds my earliest memories.

Growing up I would always be somewhat of a deviant, but I was pretty sporty too. I played soccer, football, raced BMX/mountain bikes and did martial arts. But I was always a bit more interested in nerdy stuff like drawing dragons, playing Warcraft 2 on my PC, and Pokémon on my Gameboy. My dad always gave me his old computers, which helped me expose myself to a lot of cool and scary stuff early on. I remember burning Ludacris CDs off Kazaa and getting into shit like rotten.com at an incredibly young age. My mom was always working hard and late to provide for me as a single mom. So, I took that opportunity to spend a lot of time on the internet and in the streets. I got in a lot of trouble in school and we were constantly moving around town. I got kicked out of a few schools actually. Mainly because I smoked weed. But, I also got in a handful of fights when I was young.

I got into skateboarding and graffiti around 10 years old. I wish I had more photos from this time. I did record some skate/stunt videos, but those have been lost to time. I am sure they were very cringe. A couple of years later I would drop skateboarding for punk rock and gangbanging. I remember the first time I got put on by my punk rock homies I did not understand shit. I learned quickly LMAO. I played in a couple of bands for a short amount of time. I played a little bass and drums, but I was overall trash.

After a few years of punk rockin', I slowly shifted into spending most of my time with the Sureño homies. But, by the time I was 16 after seeing my best friend get into a lot of trouble I decided to distance myself from the gang ties. I just wanted to sell drugs, not gangbang. So naturally, I dropped out of high school, got a GED, and tried community college... But ended up getting into the party life. Mushrooms, LSD, and tons of MDMA. Of course, I get caught up with two felonies right after turning 18 years old. Both of them for MDMA. That really put a damper on some shit for me.
But, it could've been worse.

During my years partying I had worked at Burgerville for a few months. but mainly made my money selling drugs and working concerts as a stagehand. After my convictions, and spending a couple weeks in the most pointlessly high-security jail, I decided it was time to focus on music and try college again. I had been DJing a bit and decided to pirate an old version of Reason and figure out how to make beats. Soon after I was making all kinds of dance music, ended up getting a legit copy of Ableton Live, and never looked back. I have been making all kinds of trash since. Lots of hip-hop/r&b type stuff... but wtf is genres these days anyways.

Around 19 years old I started working in the cannabis industry, for medically licensed gardens as a lead gardener. I dropped out of college a second time and went all-in on the weed world. But, then drama happened at the farm, and recreational legalization was right around the corner. Sooooo I ended up working for my local dispensary and bringing them all my old customers. Hahahaha *sigh*. I really enjoyed working at a dispensary though. I still see them as family. I ended up working for another garden before deciding I was sick of the cannabis industry. I missed the medical days when I could grow at home and then sell that to the dispensaries.
DIY till I die :)

These days I am reselling stuff on eBay, learning how to develop video games, collecting Pokémon cards, making clothes, and making music. I spent 2020-21 making clothes and relearning HTML, while also learning Javascript and GameMakerLanguage. My current goal is to create an internet-based collective of artists and to continue working hard on my reselling business. I also need to start going out more again. Lol.
