Mission Statement

Hello.

Thank you for being here.

In a world where Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube control the masses, it means a lot that you’d come to my page to read / look through my stuff. For that very reason, I vow to never use AI when composing any of my blogs. This is me. This is real. This is raw.

So, why my own website? Well, a place to keep and showcase my portfolio of photos and other works would be the obvious answer. But really, it’s the first step into “branding” myself. Even as someone that’s struggled with self-worth most of their life, I can acknowledge that through years of hard work honing my crafts, I have a lot of valuable things to show the world.

My life goal is to make a living doing what I love — music, photography, automotive, and traveling. Now, making a living off these things sounds impossibly challenging without watering down my work to fit current trends, which is why it’s taken me so long to get here. But I’m starting to sort things out and starting to see a way how it could possibly work.

Worth mentioning: if you work in talent management and can help me navigate through this, please reach out. I’d love to chat.

Enough rambling, let’s cut to what I aim to achieve with this website / platform. Essentially, it’ll be a hub surrounding everything I do.

The following will be my main focus points.

• Portfolio - I’ll be adding and removing photos regularly to keep things fresh. I will also put out small sets periodically. If you’d like a print of any photo on this website, please reach out and we can make that happen!

• Machines - Photos of my current (and past) vehicles. All built and modified by yours truly. Each vehicle will eventually have its own blog with backstory.

• Blogs - I don’t expect many people to read them. This moreso gives me a platform to talk freely without social media character limits and algorithms. It’ll also be a good way for y’all to stay up to date on things in my life. I’m hoping that paying money to keep this website up will motivate me to stay more active than I am on social media.

  • I’ve toyed with the idea of getting on YouTube, but that’s still up in the air. I don’t enjoy making talking-head videos, therefore it would feel disingenuous to my overall goal.

• Selling Goods - here’s a list of some things I may or may not sell on this site:

  • Merch: shirts, hoodies, hats, stickers, etc

  • Printed goods: magazines, photo books, prints (singles & sets)

  • Handmade leather goods: belts, camera straps, keychains, wallets

  • Photography gear: film cameras, lenses, flashes, accessories, etc

  • Car & Motorcycle Parts: Wheels, seats, steering wheels, etc

But yeah. A lot is happening (finally).

I’m excited to start this journey with y’all.

Thank you.
