I grew up in Greenville and have lived here my entire life. I am a
graduate from ECU with a degree in Media Production and a minor in
Political Science. I am not your typical person, meaning I stand
out and stuff. Damn if sarcasm isn't hard to express through text.
Anyway, I guess I could describe myself as soft-spoken at times and
outgoing at other times. I hate it when people try and change who I
am. I really like it when I can have a good conversation with a
someone and I am pretty open-minded. I am up for almost anything at
a moments notice.
Currently, just working a Tech Support job. It pays the bills and
then some so I am not complaining. Using the job to get to know the
company and move ahead in their in-house production department for
commerical work.
lateral thought or what is called "thinking outside the box." Also,
I have an unusually strong sense of perception.

I could never do without my friends, my books, my collection of

how I can contribute what I know and what I can do to the world.
Sometimes I just think about things in a spiritual sense. Not that
I am very religious, but I just have this feeling that death can't
be just the end. There is too much weird stuff in the world to just
ignore the spiritual side of humanity and focus on the scientific.
picking up a six pack or two of so called 'snob' beer, mostly
micro-brews or local brews, hanging out with my friends, watching
and making fun of bad movies, and playing the occasional card game.
I am an avid fan of karaoke...not that I am a bad singer or
anything. Let's just say if two bars I would go to are open and one
has a karaoke machine, the choice is easy.
you can compliment literacy with intelligence. When I have
conversations, I value a person that is either as intelligent or
even smarter than me.
