Suck it down, Eric. Suck...it...down.

About Me

Where to start...I grew up in Huntington Beach, CA, and I moved to NY in the summer of '99. My parents still live in Southern California, and my sister and her husband live in Austin, TX. I work in television, performing puppetry on shows such as Crank Yankers and Sesame Street. I get the most satisfaction from creating my own work for the stage. I like politics, theater, pretty much anything that has to do with Mexico, and hanging out with good friends. I've also recently been dabbling in photography. Oh, and I'm captain of a dodgeball team.
