About Me


I was born at the Concord hospital in New Hampshire on January 28, 1989, but my life didn't really start until my senior year of high school. I graduated when I was 16 and worked 10 different jobs and lived 3 different places before settling back down at home to go to school 2 years later. Now I work with kids and take college classes.

(AD) stands for Arcade Distro, not Attention- Deficit, but that would make sense too.

I'm involved in a few indpendent media projects. I write reviews, interviews, and occasional columns or articles for RAZORCAKE MAGAZINE(www.razorcake.org) Distribute all kinds of zines through ARCADE DISTRO, including Monsters In Our Heavens and Greasespot, which I write and co- edit, repectively.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Somebody who can teach me how to be cool.
