About Me

Since finishing my masters I have taken on a new challenge in life, I am a professional competitive eater. I have eaten with the greats, or most of them anyway. Its a fun life, takes me to new places, meet new people, the money is good, the perks are great, and the chicks dig it. As of July 25, 2006, I am officially ranked with the IFOCE (International Federation of Competitive Eating)http://www.ifoce.com/rankings.phpI have already eaten with Sonya "the Black Widow" Thomas, Joey "Jaws" Chestnut (tied for third in April 2005 in Reno for Lobster), Ed "Cookie" Jarvis, Eric "Badlands" Booker, Richard "The Locust" and Carlene LeFevre, Tim "Eater X" Janus, Patrick "Deep Dish" Bertoletti, Humble Bob Shoudt, Crazy Legs Conti (tied with 2.2 pounds in November 2005 in Boston for the Verizon Voicewing chicken wing finals), Scott Sayer, Chip Simpson, Ron Koch, Erik the Red, Andrew Skinnyboy Lane, and El Toro among other ranked eaters.
