About Me

Hmmm...I never know what to write on these things.I'm an Italian/Irish mutt. I'm from both the East Coast and the West Coast (long story). Over the years, I've lived in a bunch of cities (L.A., S.F., N.Y, Miami, London, Prague, Dallas) and have had a long list of media jobs (reporter, photographer, copywriter). I seem to get along famously with dogs, kids, little old Cuban ladies and supermodels.

Why we fight
