I am 21 years old and currently reside in El Paso TX with my wife Jessica and my three children Jade, Matt, and Alex. My wife and I are also hoping to add to our family soon. I have always loved writing and have found pleasure as well as relief from everyday life in writing poetry. I have been writing poetry since I was very young, and still do upon occasion. I have decided that now is as good a time as any to create my own legacy by publishing the works that I have literally devoted years to writing. I am currently attending school to earn my PhD. In psychology and hope to use my experiences to help others find peace in their lives. I have a passion and a drive for poetry that I feel will help my book serve as a path to finding inner peace. In being able to relate to my poetry, I have hope that others will know they are not alone, and be determined to rise above any feats they are currently experiencing.view less
