Art isn't a choice, it is, for me, the eternal yearning to express, relate, and address what stirs my soul, and moves my passion.

Writing. I have always been a poet first, and a songwriter second. I have followed the yearning to turn my poems into songs and taught myself guitar and do my best to sing.
Where do you find inspiration?Unfortunately my life has been one of a lot of loss, a lot of isolation and loneliness, and I continually walk the lines between hope, and meloncholy, of tuning in and tuning out, of inspiration and despair. Most of all, my heart struggling to not let go of its love.
What would you do with $25,000?So much in life is hard to appreciate. Worth more than the money is the exposure in hopes I can network and connect and make literal and figurative music together. I want to learn and grow and feel. I'm from a small isolated village in Wisconsin and would love to expand my horizons.
