About Me

I am a 32 year old college dropout and I work for Anderson Merchandisers as a Digital Sales Specialist. All that means is I work selling satellite, cable, and high speed internet services in Wal-Mart stores as a store vendor. I am still not sure what I want to do in life, but I am having a pretty decent time while I figure it all out. I have always been interested in art ever since I was little, but after dropping out from college I got pretty jaded at the "fine art" world. It wasn't until I found JUXTAPOZ magazine that I had a renewed interest in art but with subject matter that I could really dig. I now have started painting again, and I have many ideas on the back burner waiting to be born. I watch movies over and over obsessively, and never outgrew STAR WARS, FLASH GORDON, and CLASH OF THE TITANS. I love flea markets, antique malls, and thrift stores. The thrill of the hunt is like no other, and I can't resist digging through crates of old records, or scanning the shelves upon shelves of junk looking for cool stuff. I am obsessed with TIKI and even went so far as to build my own tiki bar in my living room. I love rockabilly, 50's and 60's, and retro greaser culture, but I also have a beachcomber fantasy that involves a little grass shack on a sleepy stretch of beachfront property. I dream of a day when I own a vintage car that I can afford to maintain, and when I enjoy what I do for a living. I think I might like to settle in Austin someday; I always have a good time when I visit there. To all my friends that live there now, you know what I'm talking about....
