My name is Eduardo Echeverria. I am not just Eduardo Echeverria. I grew up as a proud Mexican. I am not ashamed of my roots. And my roots are the reason why I am strong, determined, and whole. My roots have nourished me with cultural values and appreciation of life, family, and friends. From a child I grew into eating delectable beans and corn tortillas as the norm. All of this is depicted from the beans, the Mexican flag, and the tortillas. These are foundation of my life. The music that revolves around me also shaped me into how I am. The rock sign portrays that I listen to metal and all that good stuff. The band in my self-portrait is my favorite band. This band is the primary reason why I play the guitar. Playing the guitar is an essential part in my life. It lets me express myself and has opened the door to me into the mesmerizing and captivating music world. Without food, there is no life.
