I am introspective, generous, and unique/weird.
My Self-Summary
First of all, I've never been very good at describing myself. I can
say that I'm usually lost in thought {Dreamer}. I'm a fairly
reserved person {Stoic}, normally, but I like a good party from
time to time {Social} ... and I love a great party whenever I can
find it {Butterfly}. I 'm the kind of person who feels almost
worthless if I can't help someone out {Co-Dependent}, especially
those I care for {Co-Dependent}. Now, if I can just figure out how
to help myself out {Co-Dependent} ... There's so much in this life
to experience {Taste-Tester}, it's difficult to find the time and
opportunity to do it all {Procrastinator}, though that doesn't mean
I haven't tried, or won't try {Experimenter} ... and sometimes I
just can't help myself {Easily Tempted} ...
What I’m doing with my life
...is following my passion for musical creation. I'm going to
school for sound engineering while playing
producer/promoter/engineer for this awesome collaborative effort
known as the dotmatrix project. I make money by running sound for
shows, being a doorman for shows, or in whatever way I can that
involves music. I figure the best way to be a musician, at least
for me, is to immerse myself in all possible aspects of the
industry.
I’m really good at
... organizing things for people. I can get dangerously close to
being obsessive-compulsive about order (even though I'm secretly a
fan of chaos). I've been told by friends and strangers alike that I
have a good ear for mixing music (basically, organizing sounds). I
am an excellent listener. I was a bit of a math nerd in grade
school.
The first things people usually notice about me
... tends to be my hair, or my smile. People have a tendency to
remark on my mood...often....very often...

I spend a lot of time thinking about
...my life in this universe. A thousand different questions are
usually running through my mind. Sometimes they're all about money
- how will I afford this, that, and the other. Sometimes they're
all about time - will I be able to do whatever I need to in the
time I have available. Sometimes they're all about relationships -
who are my friends, who might be something more than a friend, etc.
On a typical Friday night I am
... probably at some local venue hanging with friends while we
check out some live (original) music. Or I might be running sound
for a show. Otherwise I'm hanging out at my favorite local coffee
shop until they close and then finding some friends to chill out
with.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
...and I quote...
"You're a stud!"
You should message me if
you can think and feel at the same time
(seriously, it's tougher than walking and chewing gum...kind of
like stumbling with style...)
