About My City:

LA is a strange town, no doubt. I grew up in NJ and NY and have traveled a lot, but I have been living out here for almost 8 years now, so I have a transient perspective on this city. I truly believe that this city is an accurate picture of the America of today. It's growing size and number of sub-cultures and peoples make this city a perfect snapshot of a diverse America trying to figure it all out as we move along.
