About Me

I like hanging out with my fiance, playing video games (currently Xbox 360 is the favorite), seeing movies, watching tv, playing music, reading, and even working ain't so bad.For 8 years I was in a punk band called Much The Same , and quit in early '07 to focus on my career in software development. There were a lot of good times had during those years, but I'm much happier now.
