Tyler+C.

=﻿Tyler Clements =

Hello, my name is Tyler Clements. I am a freshman here at Ball State, but, I actually started during the second summer session this past summer and got some credits out of the way. I am hoping to graduate in 3 years with a major in Entrepreneurship. I live in what I like to call "The Projects of Ball State", which of course is LaFollette. I attended Center Grove High School in Greenwood, IN, where I ran cross country and performed in two seperate choirs. I really enjoy talking about music with people. In fact, this summer in my spare time I started a music blog. A lot of people don't know about it, but I like to think everyone visits it and listens to everything I suggest. One day I hope to start my own business, but I don't really know exactly what I'd like to do.
