Welcome to my website My Background

Hello and thank you for visiting my web site. Well let me start off by telling you a little about myself. I am 23 years of age, and I live in Merced, CA.  I got involved with Merced Community Action Network in 1996.  I saw myself as a graffiti artist, and I was known around Merced as FUN.  FUN was my tagging name, however ; until February 11, 1996 that would be the end of my FUN.  My life changed I was booked and sentenced to Merced County jail for two years on 98 counts of vandalism.  I was assigned to community service at Merced Community Action Network for 450 hours.  Where I was to take part in the Tag Busters Graffiti Abatement Program, which I did weekly for four months.  During this time I painted over walls around the community that were covered in graffiti. Upon completing the program, I started volunteering doing camera work for Merced Youth Tell a Vision.  I learned to operate a computer.  I now  use my talent wisely. One final note to  you graffiti artist out there use your talent in a positive way like graphic art, and get paid for your art instead of wasting your own money to do something illegal!

My Interests
I like to work on my computer,  and I also like to take walks (love nature),
drawing, really enjoy taking pictures of sunsets.
