D. Simms
I currently attend Stony Brook University, where I have studied Biology, Music, and English as majors. I have written and performed my own music, and have kept up with the Indy music scene for quite some time. I have written movie reviews in the community section of Rotten Tomatoes as well as on my blog, and keep up with the blog regularly.

I strive to be a writer and musician, and I am devoted and enthusiastic when it comes to writing.
