About Me

I am the quiet one, but you know what they say about the quiet ones. I care alot and I love alot, but I'm no pushover. I balance my creative and analytical side, something that is apparent in my work and life. I can be your friend for life, but fail me and you'll never see me again.I work as a design professional during the day, and after-hours, well that is usually taken up by my "extra-curricular" activities, namely music and other creative ventures.
If you like Electronic/Synthpop, then you're gonna love PLEASURE INCORPORATED . This is my band with Jeff Sehring .

My Interests

Music, dancing, computers, synthesizers, composing and performing music, movies, books, cinema, art, photography, cinematography, graphic design, shopping, travelling, sleeping, sex, drinking and having a great time, and most of all, being happy in life.
