Music began a little later for me than it does for most people who pursue it. I never picked up an Instrument until freshman year of college when a friend handed me his old guitar before winter break and said, "Take this home, learn how to play it." That's just what I did and I was instantly hooked. During the next semester that same friend had me sing in front of an audience. I was beyond nervous, forgot the words, it was a mess, but it sparked a new journey for me, and I have been striving to play better, sing better, and perform better ever since.
