: About Me

Hey! My name is Devin. I am twenty years old, born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona (Yes it's really hot here :) Other than working full time and attending college, I love to write (I'm not saying I'm great at it, but it's an escape for me.) Life's been an exciting ride so far... and I'm sure there's much more excitement to come. But the things I've learned and the things I feel passionate about, I have to share. I hope, just maybe, through me (and others like me) the world can become a more accepting place :)

My passion is ...

"live, laugh, love..."

My parents always told me ...

"to follow my dreams"

My childhood ambition ...

"to become a Marine Mammal Trainer"

My favorite memory ...

"there are too many... good and bad"

Why I write ...

"to express my feelings... I write better than I speak"

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

"... just working"

My first job ...

"Rubios Fresh Mexican Gril

My best moment ...

The moment I started to be honest with myself about who I am. And the day she walked into my life"

My inspiration ...

"To make a difference"
