Hi there; before I talk about your article, could I ask you to get into the habit of signing your messages? You do this either by adding ~ at the end of the message, or by clicking on the, which is an icon in the row above this talkspace. I appreciate that is your first article, and I am sorry to have to delete it. I have done so because it does not give any indication of notability in this person's life, activities or character. While you hint at a number of worthwhile facets, I regret to say that the way in which the text is written does not truly convey what I am certain you are trying to say. I have sent you, below, our standard welcome message, which tells you a great deal of what you need to know to write a good article. I am not going to restore your article now, because I want you to take time to read the welcome links first. Once you have done that, after say 24 hours, if you want to try to improve the article, message me on my talk page and I will undelete it for you. But be prepared to improve it quickly, or someone else will remove it, because it is not encyclopedic as it stands.

Welcome!
