About

Mission: To live life with integrity and to make a positive and constructive difference in the life of others.

Phillip Reed, a.k.a. Mage1X, a.k.a. Crooked Pastor, is an Artist, Author, Credit Specialist, Producer, Rapper, Songwriter and Public Speaker.

When he is not assisting people with acquiring the knowledge and skills to build a thriving finacial future, he makes maps for table top role playing games, draws portraits and comic-cartoon style drawings, as well as, makes acrylic paintings, and crochet clothing and toys. In music he makes many different styles of music, but he mainly focuses on Rap and R&B. All of the things that he does he calls his Art, or Craft.

While many say that he is great at what he does, a master of his Craft, he knows he has much room for improvement. He still feels like a beginner, and is always on the look out for ways to improve upon his Craft.

He is a work in progress. Daily he takes baby steps to improve emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually, and financially.

He is thankful for his supporters who make it possible for him to focus on his craft without being a starving artist.
