Waste Not

About Me

I love the arts, theater, music, creativity, and technology. I travel, enjoy dining, and everything outdoors. I also like writing, socializing, and am very easy-going. I'm very athletic and love to excercise; I belong to Gold's Gym and workout several times a week, which comes in handy as a part-time contractor! I enjoy parties, and love quiet nights. I'm not as big on the bar scene as I used to be in college, but the occasional party is still great. I've been told I'm a very positive person with a lot of optimism, and that I see the beauty and potential in everything and everyone. My family is very important to me as they are the foundation of my life. My brother owns a theater company downtown which I'm very involved with, and creativity is a big part of everything I do. I'm also writing my first novel, and I hope to see it published soon. Friends are a major priority..not sure what I'd do without them! Get in touch if you want to know more! Myspace Backgrounds

My Interests

I love a good movie, playing ultimate frissbee, disc golf, tennis, racquetball, boating, camping, travelling, and playing/listening to music. I also enjoy writing, computing, chatting, the occasional party, socializing, technology, and the gym.I own and run a small computer tutoring business. A majority of my time goes to writing...but I'm also a part time contractor in the real estate sector, and a part time stage hand for a theater company where I help build sets and scenery.

I'd like to meet:

Steve Jobs, Bono, Michael Giacchino, Jesper Kyd, Bill Brown, Jeremy Soule, John Williams, Russel Crowe, Anthony Hopkins, Derek Sanders, Tristan Ziorjen.And I'd say Alec Baldwin - but I already have twice!

Music:

I listen to a very eclectic range of music. Most would say I listen to alternative, but I just tell people it's varied instrumental. I'm both a serious collector and listener of game music - its come very far in the last six years and the creativity is endless. I'm not into rock, rap, hip-hop, or heavy metal. I do like some pop music, and I love U2 and ColdPlay. I can never get enough great movie soundtracks, and I'm big into classical too.

Movies:

I'm into a wide variety of films. I love deep films, and serious drama. Action is always great, science fiction, war dramas. A big fan of the Merchant Ivory films.

Television:

Who the hell has time for TV?

Books:

Favorite authors are Frank Herbert, J.R.R Tolkien, J.K. Rowling, and the Miller brothers. I'm currently 3/4 done writing my first novel in the fantasy genre. I've been working on it for almost three years. I hope to be finished by next year and see it published. Fantasy, science fiction, and history are probably my three favorite genres.

Heroes:

Dick Meyers, Ken DeGasper, Derek Sanders, Steve Jobs, John Williams, my friends and family.
