About Me

I'm.....kind of a big deal....let's begin.I'm a musical theater man to the core (i know...manly); I recently completed the musical theater program at Oakland University with a B.A in performance/musical theater (Magna Cum Laude - that's my Penelope moment).For my not so Peneolope moment...I also have a degree in business and supply chain management from Michigan State University. I did NOT graduate Magna Cum Laude on this one......cuuuuuz ahm duuuuuuumb.Born and raised in Birmingham, Michigan, one has to get involved in things like sports and extra curricular activities, as it's the only place to be if you're a young person in Birmingham. I am a competitive swimmer, skier (downhill), play racquetball, and a former US Diver.Spent high school with a hardy crop of band geeks; Seaholm High maple leafs HOLLLA ;) I play the saxophone and have been at it for almost 20 years now.I somehow picked up a propensity for takin' the pictures somewhere along the way; I'm a freelance photographer who specializes in actor headshots and publicity photos.CHECK OUT THE SLIDESHOWS OF MY WORK BELOW!!!!

I'M A PHOTOGRAPHER TOO! HERE'S A SAMPLE OF SOME OF MY STUFF, AND ALSO SOME HEADSHOTS I HAVE TAKEN LATELY:

My Interests

Well, see.....I'm a Musical Theatre student at Oakland University, and ever since I left the corprate world in the dust I have been pretty much emersed in theatre. I can't get enough of it.Other activities that find themselves in the repitoar include Skiing, Diving (used to be a US Diver), swimming (competetive), rackquetball, tennis, whitewater rafting, music, the sax, theatre, dancing, photography, cookies, spending time with my friends, deep conversations over a bottle of wine..or just beer...whatever, summer nights, the list goes on...

I'd like to meet:

Please....just be funny.

Music:

I'm into pretty much every type of music you can think of. Now, there are always exceptions to every rule, and the exception to my "every kind of music" rule are Rap and anything Rap related. Not like i'll have to worry about that much longer as all the rap "artists" keep killing eachother off.....I give the genre another 10 years ;) Other then that it's pretty much free range! My favorite type of music would have to be Jazz; I have played the sax for 18 years. It's what introduced me to music...at least autonomically. I used to listen to music all through my childhood...but the sax was my first musical outlet.

Movies:

I'm adicted to them. They're fantastic in every way. My top ten all time favorites are.........are you ready.....here they come......get a pen.......the suspense is killing you.......wait for em.......ok enough of that. DREAMGIRLS!!!!!!! Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, The Good Girl, Garden State, Moulin Rouge, Chicago, Apollo 13, Frequency, Erin Brockovich, American Beauty, and So I Married an Axe Murderer. Not secessarily in that order.

Television:

"Men In Trees" is just yummy. Yummy in every single way. Another show that just kinda rocks my world is Medium; Patricia Arquette kicks quite a lot of A$$. I have to say that Scrubs is one of the funniest shows in television history. Any show that can make you pee a little....preeety much every time it's on is TV GOLD in my book. Additionally, Desprate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, and Boston Legal are definately worthy of your time.

Books:

A what? Book? How do you even pronounce that word? Nah, i'm not much of a novel fan. I have enough plays, music, and text books to read and there's only so much time in the day. Not to mention, i'm a very visual person and when it comes to sitting still and simply moving my eyes back and forth it just puts me to sleep. Two pages of a novel and it's LIGHTS OUT....LIGHTS OUT>>>>Nothing but a blank spot.

Heroes:

Anybody who makes it big on Broadway, Meryl Streep, people who can make light of any situation, the makers of Zyrtek without which I would be a raging allergic mess, air conditioning, my friends cause they're the best in the world, Stephen Sondheim....
