About Me



Layout Created at KillerKiwi.net

Im the oldest of four kids, born and raised in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. Moved to Memphis after high school; for years of that city was more than enough for me so I moved back to Arkansas. Bounced from job to job for a couple of years until i realized that I needed to get involved in my dad's construction company. I went back to school to study Construction Management, but after two semesters i realized that i couldn't very well go to school and work full time as a project superintendant, so i dropped out to work. Last spring I spent three months backpacking around Eastern Europe, hoping to find a way to not come back... (UN)fortunately i came back to Siloam, bought a house on a hilltop in the woods, went back to work building a Frat house, and have started planning my next trip abroad. I am also currently trying to open up a coffee shop in the old post office building in downtown Siloam.

My Interests

My interests tend to change as the seasons do. The warm Arkansas winter this year has not affected my interests much this time however. Currently I have been playing a lot of Backgammon, drinking a lot of Kentucky Straight Bourbon - mostly Wild Turkey 101, going to see live music whenever there's somthing worth going to, hiking around with my dog, and reading George R.R. Martin.
