About Me

I like people. I'm friendly and laid back. I don't like the club scene, but I do love a good concert. Music and movies rule my life, and that makes me happy. I lived in LA/OC for the last 5 years, but I'm happy to be in the northwest now. I work in film production, which lately has been mostly been in commercials. I like to read even though I don't do it near enough, working on Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them. I try to ride my bike or walk most places, although adjusting to weather is new for me. I drink good beer or PBR (I say "or" because some people don't think PBR qualifies as good), Hunter S. Thompson once said "Good people drink good beer." and I try to live true to that.

My Interests

Filmmaking (and watching movies), adrenalin, I love the beach, beer, booze, all kinds of good music, activism, Midget Tossing , cooking, frisbee, good times, laughing, nature, snowboarding, traveling, hiking, apple computers, ice blocking, playing with kiddie toys and acting like I'm 5, dancing, singing in my car, and most importantly living
I love river rafting!



I'd like to meet:

New friends, old friends, and NOT YOUR BAND . If you are a real person who wants to do real things like going to shows, hiking, enjoying a frosty mug of beer, etc. that'd be pretty rad and please do add me.
