A couple of things about me: intellectual and a bit nerdy, rather down to earth, dark sense of humor, passion for my career, curiosity about the world around me, and a big heart once you get to know me... I hope that'll do for now.

Teaching communication and media studies (college prof) and making music

Quizzo, synthesizer, teaching and lecturing (I hope)

these days it's gotta be the beard
