When you scroll through Turner’s Instagram, you see someone who is destined with a ferevered work ethic, and bundle of creativity. “I was born and raised in Lakeland Florida, a small town between Orlando and Tampa. As I got older I always had a bat temper. So in order to calm myself I wrote down how I felt in one word. Then those one words went from sentences, to paragraphs,” Said Turner.

Turner is not pursuing his success in the depths of fantasy either. He is very much so living and working amongst some of the most highly toted figures in the industry. Look at the photo above.
