FAYETTEVILLE, NC
I am a Chinese - American boy with many ambitions. I like to be creative and unique. I try not to "follow" society's ways, because I like to establish my own personal style. I am a trumpet player, a magician, and a poet. I love the arts with great passion! I take great pride in my Chinese culture and its traditions. There are a lot of unique things that I want to experience in this great world of ours. I strive to live in a colorblind society, where race, religion, gender, and sexuality does not matter. My most important goal in life is to try to break the barriers of the human race.
