About Me

I work in a Zoo. I'm also a concert photographer, ex-ASU rower and a HR manager. I really like to travel, but then again who doesn't. My type of traveling is buying a ticket some place for a week and have no real plans and hope for the best. It usually works out great. I am an EnTP personaility type, and fit it to a T. What does this mean, well, that I love to play devils advocate, am quick on my feet, and think way outside the box among other things. If you want me to shoot a show, contact me via myspace. From the Crowd is looking for reviewers and writers as well, if you're interested or are a musician and want things featured or reviewed, check out the site. If you want to know more ask!
Fav Concert: Green Day (I have never been to a more amazing show.)
Fav CD: The Fray How to Save a Life & All American Rejects: Move Along (The two CDs I can listen to all the way through by a single band) Fav Quote: What we call luck, what we call chance, is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.

My Interests

Crew, Travel, Photography, Psychology, Education, Music, Concerts, Sports, Wine...lots more.

I'd like to meet:

People that are willing to share ideas, have a serious conversation one minute and then be a total goofball with the next.
People who are into photgraphy
In addition to that...Old friends, new friends, people to hang out with and who knows. I am always up for talking and meeting new people.
I will only add friend requests if you also send a note, or we have talked previously.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

My friend Drew and I had a huge discussion about the bailout and his opinion of the impact, or rather "the end" in his eyes. He is so concerned, he's actually busted out his British passport "as...

Just a few of my "hated" things...

There are only a few things I really hate in life... Waiting, Not being able to solve a problem, Not being able to sleep and having a lack of the slightest bit of control. Grrr... I seem to be suffere...

Catching yourself...

You that feeling? The one you get right before you fall and somehow, you just manage to catch yourself in the nick of time? That is how I kind of feel right now. There is a sense of pride ...

Can I have a $29,000 reward?

So yeah. I don't think sometimes. We all know this. In my efforts of walking more and driving less, I've been making many trips by foot. Good for my wasit line and better for the env...

My Memory... Stephanie, its the towers

I'll always remember September 11, 2001 exactly as the day unfolded for me. Perhaps, its because of the personal loss that was suffered, or perhaps it was the realization that life as I knew it would...
