This video consists of "The Guest House" written by a poet named Rumi.  This poem has inspired me to have a mindful and positive mindset each and everyday.  It focuses on accepting what is around you and to even "meet them at the door laughing and let them in".  The whole idea of this poem is to understand that in the end things will be okay.  It allows me to believe that the universe has a plan and that everything is meant to be...

Performance Art

The idea of this performance art was to basically go out of the norm and shop backwards.  Even though I didn't get to many odd looks, I'm sure some people thought I was acting pretty stage.  Overall this project was a little tough to come up with, but once I got my idea, it was actually loads of fun.

ELECTRONIC – PRODUCER/DJ CULTURE - Martijn Garritsen, aka Martin Garrix is a world renowned DJ who has set himself at the top of the ladder in regards to electronic dance music.  Martin has been a very inspirational DJ for me and has given the younger generation of listeners something to be proud of.

















GIRL POWER - London Grammar, has hit festivals throughout the world, not only in the alternative genres but also in the field of electronic dance music.  The lead singer, Hannah Reid has a voice like no other, which really sets here apart from other female artists.  The music created by this group puts listeners into a somewhat trance state. :)




TECHNO - Jon Hopkins, in my opinion is king of electronic/techno music.  His music which is created by the use of synths creates an iconic instrumental atmosphere for any moment.  Likewise to London Grammar, this artists completely sets listeners into a new world.  The instrumentals that Jon Hopkins creates is by far one of the most unique sounds around.




NINETIES - Coldplay, the greatest rock band of all time, consists of lead singer, Chris Martin, guitarist, Jonny Buckland, bassist, Guy Berryman, and drummer Will Champion.  Since 1998, Coldplay has generated a total of 7 Grammy Awards, created 7 albums, and have sold over 80 million records sold.  This band has created a broad range of music styles ranging from slow ballads to heart pumping stadium anthems.  They've experienced many iconic moments including headlining the Super Bowl 49 Halftime Show and even playing the MainStage at Glastonbury Music Festival.  Coldplay will always have a special place in my heart and have created music that will stick with me through the rest of my life!




















Punk - Green Day has evolved as one of the greatest punk bands around. The lead singer, Bill Joey Armstrong brings out a very unique atmosphere to the band.  They've been around for decades and played sold out tons of sold out shows through out the world.
