My name is Joshua Watts. I’m a composer, a pianist, a singer, and I’m working on becoming a piano tuner: basically, I like to make nice sounds. What I like even more is making nice sounds and getting paid for it! Please pay me to do what I love, and I’m quite sure you’ll love what you paid me to do!
