About Me

I have many interests and am highly passionate about all of them. I like to think that I am good at anything I try (as should anyone else). Some of my deepest passions lie in music, natural bodybuilding, photography, graphic art, and anything/everything about life and the Universe. I play drums religiously and dedicate myself almost excessively to everything I do. I have found my niche doing marketing work for real estate companies. I shoot professional photography and do every type of graphic marketing possible... Get at me if you would like to see some of my portfolio. I work a lot because I love it. I love uptown Charlotte and will be moving there soon because my life revolves around it. I love to go out and have fun, but I also find much enjoyment reading and studying anything pertaining to: quantum physics, the law of attraction, metaphysics, ontology, the power of the mind in general, etc... I used to be a comedy snob, but it seems as I get older, I just want to laugh at anything and everything. I can be very A.D.D... but, "it gives me my edge." Haha. An easy way to keep my attention is to stimulate me mentally and/or have a good sense of humor... Being intelligent doesn't mean you have to hate the world. If you don't like something, don't be a victim... get off your ass and change it! If you can't trust, it's because you aren't trustworthy. Other interests include (but are definitely not limited to): my dog Jake, sushi (and lots of food in general), guitar, my car... and, did I mention that I'm a die-hard Carolina Panthers fan?
