About Me

..This profile was edited with MySpace Help - Profile Creator and EditorI work, play, and go to school in Detroit.
I'm a filmmaker.

I spent May of '06 in Seattle on the sponsorship of the Red Cross (Seattle chapter). While I was there I directed and edited a 45 minute documentary following the stories of two long term AIDS survivors.
I've also had the privilege of being guest director on the hit cult sci-fi Detroit-based series "InZero." Before I served as director I served as Lead Editor and Assistant Director.
I am a Computer Sciene major senior at Wayne State University.
I briefly owned and ran a campus newspaper, but it failed because I didn't know what I was doing. Oh well, on to the next one...
Right now my long term goals are to (a) run my own video/film production and post-production business (b) build a boat that runs on vegetable oil (c) travel to wild places in the US and make documentaries
Right now my immediate goal is (a) Make films!
I homebrew my own beer. I just started, so it's hit or miss.
I enjoy stability, drama-free environments, drinking, camping, philosophy, drums, my girlfriend Ducky, guitar, singing, watching movies, paying attention to my money, obscene jokes, my family, and my two dogs, Chloe and Bailee.
I do not watch TV, I download.

My Interests

FILM! I am an editor (and director when I can be), fluent in Final Cut Pro. I have completed a few fun projects in my day... I will get them uploaded this month.

I'd like to meet:

In your life, things are so twisted that you just have to laugh.

If Your Life Was a Movie, What Genre Would It Be?

Music:

Johnny Mundane & The Sweetspots

Movies:

Don't get me started.

Television:

Lost, Rescue Me, The Office, Drawn Together, Nip/Tuck and most of all: Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Books:

Generally I'm into non-fiction. I'm reading "The Language Instinct" by Steven Pinker right now. It is an amazing look into the constructions of language and our brains.

Heroes:

King Leonidas, Dan Savage

My Blog

Aim Low, Shoot High (or vice versa)

I was reading this vengeful article.True justice, of course, probably hasn't been served. The Church, with its subset of guilty individuals, should be held criminally liable. But let's put that consid...

Goodbye Mohawk

For my birthday, I cut my mohawk off. It might come back someday, maybe not. Now I'm just a dome.
