ORIGIN

He grew up in an alternative household with a punk mother and a gothic father. Money was never abundant, but creativity always was. Nothing was thrown away until it was truly unusable. Old leather jackets became bracelets. Broken zippers turned into earrings. Torn pants were resewn with contrasting fabric instead of being discarded.

His parents never forbade him from wanting new things—they simply taught him that new didn’t always mean bought. Everything could be transformed with patience and care. Growing up surrounded by underground shows, record collections, and late-night conversations about art and identity, he absorbed the culture naturally. Though he isn’t technically gifted with instruments and still struggles at times, his stage presence is magnetic.

When he performs, he pours feeling into every movement, every lyric—people remember him not for perfection, but for emotion.

RESIDENCE

Currently couch-sharing and rooming with Finn due to money issues. Their space is cluttered but lived-in—posters on the walls, clothes draped over chairs, half-finished DIY projects everywhere.
