I'm a pretty stoic but fun loving guy. I enjoy all forms of multimedia entertainment and pursue many creative works such as clay sculpture, animation, painting, and some writing. I tend to be eclectic and my friend and hobby choices portray that quite well.

When I'm not hard at work on some form of expression I'm usually found reading, doing research online, or hanging out with friends. I enjoy a nice walk, rain or no. That being said I like to spend a lot of time learning and researching new topics, ideas, and forms of entertainment.

Enjoying it.

Currently I am honing my art and design skills for use in interactive media. I hope to one day be able to work at my own pace, exploring my own ideas freely rather than working for a major entity.

Watching my current roomie's bearded dragon plot my demise.

Being myself. Creative indulgence. Exploring new things and ideas. Apparently I make a mean grilled cheese sandwich.

I'm a jack of all trades, master of none kind of guy.... and it isn't really all that bad.

I'm tall and generally pretty quiet until I get to know someone. That I look like a slightly younger Mr. Clean. My nerdy tattoos.

Books: Snow Crash, Diamond Age, The Dark Tower series, Battle Royale, Lord of the rings, Do androids dream of electric sheep, The Divine Comedy, and loads of other books, classic lit included. I enjoy reading immensely. While there are exceptions to every rule I prefer not to read tween novels. I still like to read comics and have a deep love of TMNT.

Movies and shows: I enjoy just about any type of movie be it Horror, Fantasy, Drama, Comedy or anything in between. Some of my favorite movies are the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Kick-Ass, A Clockwork Orange, Repo!, The City of Lost Children, and Kikujiro. Shows are Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, The Maxx, Dr. Horribles Sing Along Blog, and The Guild to name a few.

I love to watch horrible movies like Sharktopus with friends and laugh at their cheesy appeal. I also have a draw towards foreign film. It's interesting to see how other countries approach the same idea.

Music: I like just about everything except for country. Some of my favorite bands are Brand New, The Felix Culpa, Dear Hunter, Paramore, Arcade Fire, Florence, Fleet Foxes, Type O Negative, Kanye, DJ Tiesta. Whatever suits my mood at the time. I enjoy live music more than anything.

Food: Burgers, pizza, wings, salad.... all of the food. Over the past year I've began a deep seated love of spicy cuisine. Eating hot wings, thai food, and random peppers has been a fun experience.

1. Art - It's what I do and a big driving factor of my existence.
2. My Computer - It has the internets. Research, digital painting, and media. Its my number one source of entertainment and a big part of my development process.
3. Music - Life wouldn't be the same without a good soundtrack.
4. Friends - Friends are family to me. Good friends pick you up when you're down, and steal your cheese fries when you're not looking.
5. My Glasses - No, seriously. I would probably walk into traffic.
6. Rain - The sound of rain is calming and the feel of it on my skin is exhilarating at times.

Caffeine should be on this list somewhere.

I'm a pretty big escapist. I set out to create worlds that are far more entertaining and intriguing than our own. I think about my various projects, composition, color. The future and what it may hold. Where I put my glasses.

Usually I am hanging out with friends. We may be gaming or having a great time at a concert. Sometimes I just like to take a step back and chill at home.... grab a drink, a good book, and listen to music.

I'm not sure what qualifies... there are so many private things in life!

You want to get to know me better and have an open mind. If you just want to talk to someone new. I'm more inclined to message people that have the gall to message me first...
