I'm from Massachusetts originally, but went to art school in Georgia.

My best friend and I wrote a screenplay that Ben Affleck actually read. I'm guessing he decided it was too much like some other hugely successful low budget indie comedy based in a retail establishment featuring wise cracking employees, thus ending my career as a screenwriter. If you want, you can read it some time or maybe you can just go rent Clerks.

After school I spent awhile playing in various bands up and down the east coast, and actually got pretty close to "making it" a few times, but ultimately decided I'd rather be an adult, which has actually worked out quite swimmingly.

I paid my dues working for various tech start-ups in and around Boston, until about 2 years ago when I landed my dream job. It's been all rainbows and unicorns ever since.

Right now, I spend most of my free time with my family and trying to put together another band. Otherwise, I have pretty typical hobbies, watching movies, listening to music, playing video games, etc, but I enjoy doing pretty much anything.

I design and develop websites for a video game company in Cambridge. Its pretty much the opposite of work. Seriously, I can't say enough nice things about it or the people I work with.

Do I need much of a plan beyond that? I'm not sure. I'm considering going back to school and have started looking at programs in the area, but I'm struggling with the idea of going part-time and it taking me six years to finish my degree.

I'd like to spend more time working on music, writing, and my artwork, but I get enough of all three at work to keep me happy for the time being.

I am introverted and definitely reserved at first, but I warm up quickly. So maybe the better question is what do people usually notice about me second...
