About Me

History, Music, Drinking...these are teh loves of my semi-intelligent smart-ass self. A B.A. in History led me directly into high end wine and beer distribution, where I now drive around Austin and San Antonio selling beer to stores and bars. In September I begin a one year program with the Mediatech Recording Institue so I can finally produce film music (though suffering the indignity of being in the music business). I work my ass off, I drink and smoke too much...there you go.
