About Me

  • I am now the new drummer for Philadelphia based industrial/ambient band PAGAN. Check out the new website www.midnightpyre.com for all upcoming events.
  • I am a graduate of Kutztown University, a true Amish paradise, where I studied Fine Arts. After graduating I came to the realization that a fine arts degree wont get you very far career wise, and I also realized that the Fine Artist path is a road I would like to avoid. All is not lost for me though, and I have found a profession that I think truly fits my lifestyle and personality. I am partner of Bright Side Productions an independent film company, and am the Associate Producer for all movies created by said company :)
  • In my personal life I'm engaged to be married to my beautiful fiance Kristy on Nov 1st of 2008. I live with Kristy outside of Philadelphia. In my spare time I'm an avid video game enthusiast and have recently gotten into testing games and hopefully with the help of BS productions will someday make my own game which i have declared to by my OFFICIAL "Life Time Goal" Check out the new site: www.brightsideprod.com

  • "The up and up" Bright Side's internet radio coming soon!!!
