About Me

My name really is the color. And from there it starts to get weird. I'm leaving IT to go back to my real passions. The Performing Arts. Singing, acting, especially musical theater, even writing on the side (performance writing, a whole new performance art! Watch me write! Watch that pen go!). And I'm moving eastward too, someday... Starting life all over, as it were.
EVENTUALLY... Life throws you curveballs, and I got a big one recently, so stuff is delayed for a while...
Obviously I love tech, music, theater, films, photography, just about anything creatively expressive. I love to mountain bike, and swim, but forget running unless I'm late. And I have far too wide a range of interests to list here. But that's a good start.

My actual site and blog is at burntelectrons.org , FYI.
