Skills
High-volume dining
undefinedDancing
I love to be out and social! When it comes to music and dancing; I'd say I'm pretty fun to be around! House, Hip-hop and break-dancing were my main genres of dance and I still practice to this day!
Keyboards
I actually construct keyboards; the ones used for typing on a computer! Mainly for recreational purposes but some commissions have been for at-home workers who want to make their tools of the trade more enjoyable/comfortable to use! There's a lot of precise and delicate work when making a keyboard!
