About Me

Things to know about me: I just graduated from Santa Clara University with a degree in Marketing. I currently work at Adobe Systems where I act as operational support for the NA and EMEA launches of the Adobe volume licensing stores. I used to be a web developer, but now I only freelance on rare occasions. I watch way too much television, but it helps me relax. I love music and concerts, especially rock and pop. I think all musicians should aspire to the heights of Butch Walker/Marvelous 3. I also think not enough people know about him/them. I currently live in California, which is where I was born. I keep moving away and coming back. I guess it's where I belong.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Hugh Grant, because I'm sure he would be really funny. Bono, because he's only the closest thing to God on earth. Seriously, I'd like to meet anyone who is a friend that I've lost track of or anyone with similar interests.
