Griffin
Eccentric and eclectic, Griffin is a singer-songwriter, producer, and general creator. His alter ego is a writer of fiction, code, and technical documents. Born and raised in the Northwest, he loves clouds and rain because they provide an excuse to stay in and play piano or guitar. Then again, he thinks that the sun is a great excuse to ride his motorcycle or play music outside. Griffin joined Songwriters in Seattle in early 2013 and has become very active as a volunteer.
