I'm a seventeen year old skateboarder, artist, and activist. I support graffiti artists, extreme athletes, trailblazers, and original minded people. I love the earth and am trying to get active in the Green Party. My main goal right now is to put my thoughts into a public forum to allow people to consider my beliefs and views.
