I am here for Friends

About Me

I bounce around the country at will, I live where ever you need me to live and I'm from almost every where.
I'm a homeless nomadic gypsy
In the past two years I haven't been in the same city for more than 2 months. I work in the camera department in the film industry and I've had the great fortune of being able to work my way around the country.
I was born in Mass, but I've lived in upstate NY, down in North Carolina, took up residence in NH for a bit, went to RI for two films, then jumped in my jeep and drove across the country to move to LA. I have an apartment in Los Feliz, CA that I basically sublet out all the time because I'm never there.
I never know where I'm going to end up next and I like it. I have no commitments to anything but myself. No pets, no girlfriend, no reason to stay still.
My only complaint is living out of suit cases. I smile any time I get to hang stuff on a hanger :)
I shoot stills in my free time, which I rarely have.
I figure one day I'll slow down and call a place home, but for now I'll stick with the open road.

My Interests

Indy flicks, sports, Macs, production work, 16oz BudLight bottles, 8mm, 16mm, 35mm, HDV, HD, DSLR, photography, lighting, filmmaking, living life

Music:

I listen to everything, but I really need someone feeding me new shit to listen to, cause I never have time to look around. So if you have some good music, send it a long

Movies:

Independent Flicks that most people would find boring. ex. Secretary, Thirteen, Party Monster, American Psycho, Kids, Bully, Ken Park, Wassup Rockers, Another day in paradise, Happiness, Spun, The secret lives of Dentist, Hotline , Love Liza, Outsiders, Donnie Darko, Last Night, Ichi the Killer, Audition, Extreme 3 volume 1 & 2, Hard Candy, I could go on and on and on, but these are a taste of the best

Television:

&otI watch sports. And then after that I am an FX bitch. Meaning I watch ;Over there", "Rescue Me", "Nip/Tuck", "Sunny in Philly", ectAnd I watch reruns of boy meets world....and if you think that makes me less of a man all I have to say to you, is fuck you. And I fucked your mom. Unless you are my brother making a comment, in which case I didnt fuck your mom, because obviously that would be my mom too...you know, this is just getting complicated

Rebel without a crew by Robert Rodriguez, How to shoot a feature for under 10k without going to jail, Survivor, Choke, The Haunted, Fight Club- Big Chuck fan. I actually wrote a script that I adapted a script to Obsolete ( the last short story in Haunted) and made a short film. Also read a couple of the Dark Towers books. And I also read "Dogs dont tell jokes"....thats like 2nd grade shite right there...yeah, count it
