About Me

I'm originally from San Diego, CA. Now I'm living in the Orange County area, pursuing my dream career in the video game industry. Aww yeah das right. I make da video games, and I have fun while I'm doing it. The industry is a crazy place, with tons of people running around all chicken-with-head-cut-off style, and it doesn't look like it's gonna slow down any time soon, but it's a cool job working with some cool and talented folks. Just biding my time to truly show the biz a taste o' innovation, and yes my time is coming. :)

I'm all about being laid back and chilling. Kick back, don't stress, and figure stuff out. At the same time I have quite the random sense of humor, so be wary.

I'm pretty damned open-minded, I have manners, open communication is cool.

I'm into a whole bunch of stuff, which I'm sure I'll be disclosing in a later square thingy so I won't tell you yet. Bleh so there.

My Interests

Martial Arts, Movies, Video Games, Books, Body Surfing, snow boarding, Drawing, 3d Animation, Comics, writing, short stories... STUPID NINJA! Coming soon.

I'd like to meet:

People who don't take things too seriously. People that aren't dicks for the sake being dicks. People who are not too arrogant... width="425" height="350" ..
