Tyson Weems
Project Roles: Creator, founder, lead presenter, graphic designer, music writer/producer, web designer
Motivation: This project reflects my life: sports, music, art, learning, teaching, food, and trying to be clever. It builds on many different experiences and also means growing in new ways as a performer, educator, student, and leader. I get to develop and channel my energy, passions, and skills in ways that can positively impact many others. What could be better than that?
