I’ve lived in a variety of places in the South and Midwest. Although I don't have an accent, I compulsively open doors for people and have been known to say ma'am on occasion. I also have a generous, if slightly dorky, laugh. A friend of mine described my sense of humor as “wry.” I’ve spent a big chunk of my life in one art school or another, and I don’t regret a minute of it. This is my tenth year in Los Angeles, which I have decided is long enough to call it “home.” I love the quality of life here, the sunshine, and even the occasional deluge. I enjoy the beach, although I spend more time in the water than on the sand. I’m generally having a good time, but of course, I have my days.

I have an extremely unglamorous and underappreciated job in the movie business that I truly love. The rest of my life is about the usual stuff: experiencing, learning, and growing.

Giving compliments and encouragement. Coming up with names for rock bands.

I have unique gait when I walk. It’s sort of a nerdy (yet
endearing) pimp strut that I’ve had since I could walk, and it’s
unintentional. I think it might have something to do with poor
ankle flexibility.

I’m going to do broad strokes here. Books include Madame Bovary and A Confederacy of Dunces. For music, I cut my teeth as a kid on David Bowie and Nick Cave, and they both still matter to me. Most of the movies I love were made in the seventies, including Dog Day Afternoon and Network. I also have a soft spot for English gangster movies. I don’t watch a whole lot of TV, but I do like Entourage, Deadwood, and some of the other HBO shows I’ve seen. Food – dark chocolate.

Next...

Human behavior stuff, like why people don’t use their turn signals when they change lanes.

Either out with friends or home with Netflix. Both are enjoyable.

Poor ankle flexibility.

I’ll probably be messaging you because, based on your profile, I think you might be one of those smart, creative, compassionate types with a great sense of humor.
