About Lisa Marie Garver

Lisa Marie Garver is a Berklee College of Music graduate and struggling artist. Coming from a background of poverty in rural Oregon and racial homogenity/whitewashing, Berklee/Boston was a refreshing splash of color, life, knowledge and opportunity for her.

She has a blog of random madness called www.destroythemetaphor.wordpress.com.
