My Interests

Photography, paintball, the visual arts, traveling, toys, artsy fartsy magazines, listening to music in headphones, pin up art, robots, syndicated TV, Netflix, my Blackberry, underground subcultures, hating on everyone, getting out of the city on day trips, the beach, taking days off and not giving a shit.

I'd like to meet:

Creatives and potential collaboratives.
people to help keep my mind occupied

and people who will trade a tattoo session for a photo session.

Television:
