I am a composite. ​I was born into a family of composites - one a Mexican, and one a mix of European (though mostly German/scandinavian). My favorite foods were Beans and Macaroni and Cheese,but now I don't eat dairy or meat. I grew up listening to both Silvio Rodriguez and Raffi. I have been a composite ever since. I keep collecting languages because the more I learn the fewer words seem to accurately express. I have found that art speaks to me; that words, music, and lines move me. I have found a place for composites, and that place is in this world - learning, loving, and giving. I hope to do all of these things.
