COPYWRITER
I think you can gauge someone pretty well by their instincts.
My instincts tell me to pick up a pen.
To write poetry and draw landscapes.
My instincts tell me to run.
To run till I’m a D1 athlete and my competition is a distant memory.
My instincts tell me to sing.
To find harmony within ideas and revel in the actualization of imagination.
This is who I am and who my writing will reflect.
A man of many colors disguised in all black.
Hopefully, by now, your instincts are telling you to reach out.
If so, I'd love to hear from you.
Cheers!
