Driven for Growth and Understanding
I am 6'2", 220, with an athletic build, hazel eyes, and dark brown hair sprinkled with silver. I LOVE learning and creating, reading and drawing. In the world, I played guitar and was teaching my daughter. We also enjoyed doing "Bob Ross" style landscapes. Lately, graphite art has become one of my favorite pastimes. The look of happiness people get when they see their loved ones immortalized in pencil is priceless.

Also, I've been teaching myself Russian. Most people go their entire lives without ever grasping the fact that we can do whatever we put our minds to. I also enjoy work and exercise and the sense of accomplishment that goes with them.

In the world, unfortunately between family and work there wasn't a lot of time for friends. There are a lot of people and interesting people out there and it's my hope to maybe get to meet some of you. "Treat each new relationship like a potential work of art; to create a masterpiece, you must start with a fresh canvas."

For initial thoughts or questions regarding my conviction, for which I'm currently still fighting. Before this people that knew me, knew me as a reliable and hardworking individual. Never before had I ever been accused of a violent crime. Alcoholic? Maybe. Violent? Never. Accidents happen, even terrible ones, and people get caught in the nets of the justice system. And nobody knows how it works unless you go through it. Regardless, still get up every day and try to change myself. Do better and be better than yesterday. If I'm going to spend time sequestered from my loved ones, then I will do my very best to make it mean something. Love and happiness to you all!!
