To my buddy, Hunter B. Lavinder

This project is dedicated in part to you. My friend, brother, and Comrad. Although the time was short, it was full with laughs and lessons. What I will take with me on this journey is your attitude of living life unapologetically. Being the first one on the dance floor and the last one to leave. Be easy brother and we will jam again one day.



The people who inspire me and my work have one thing in common, they all have found the courage to believe in their ideas and worked tirelessly to transform their thoughts into reality. Some are artists, some teachers, some writers but all share their gifts selflessly. I look at their work ethic, strategies, failures, and triumphs to add to my own work. Maybe they can add to yours too.

This video always blows my mind b/c of the creativity and the lyric
