Function in JAIAS: Guitar, backing vocals, lyricist, and occassionally some keyboards.

Other projects: I've been doing this a long time. I have done a lot of things. I ended up in a lot of weird places and situations. All you can do is try and get back in the groove. I found I do this alot. Somewhere someone has the results of many of these projects, maybe even me. It's hard to tell what I'll do next. I'm intelligent, though most of the time confused. A definate realist. Sensitive to my surroundings and people's responses to things. Right now I'm working on some new lyrics & melodies in addition to some rhythm guitar. Also doing some web and video stuff. Stay tuned!!!!!!!

Musical goals: To keep expressing my thoughts and emotions through my art. The problem is that in this time and place very few people do this in a very real way. I hope to change that. It should always be substance before style, not style before substance. I will make them see the error of their ways.
