About 

Lately, I find my self looking for something deeper. I learned music to find the inner accentuation of my life, I took on architecture as proof of my diligence and articulation, and now I find that in order to keep up with the world I must do and learn more.

So I continue to assimilate.

Now I will be taking on a global trend: making my self globally available and heard.
Of these, I will be learning two languages (Chinese & Spanish) and will be learning the professions of Journalism & Cinematography. By doing this, I plan on exploring a more philosophical meaning and understanding in the way our world is developing while providing my own tidbits of self enlightenment~
