I am an independent artist with disabilities. I love making music. My cerebral palsy challenges me sometimes but I don’t let it stop me from creating. The music I create helps me express what I’ve been through. I like writing music to help other people not feel alone. I use music to motivate me. I hope when others hear it they’ll say “yes, he may have disabilities but he is trying to let us know something about himself. I’ve seen and been through a lot of stuff in my life. I’ve been through obstacles and now I’m trying stay positive and work through pain. I have a language barrier.
