About Me

Well...I was born and raised in Chico, California. Still here, for good or bad I suppose. I love taco wagons and I can't imagine living in a place without Mexican food. I have an unhealthy preoccupation with all things robotic, photosynthetic, animated, or explodey. I'm a student of the horticulture field with a minor interest in viticulture, currently working as a merchandiser for Hines Horticulture. I'm a shameless plant nerd and I love working with growing things.

My Interests

Gardening, hiking, swimming, drinking, backpacking, disc golf, reading, biking, hunting, drinking, camping, gaming, wakeboarding on the rare occasion, hitting up the creeks/flumes in the summer

I'd like to meet:

Shigeru Miyamoto, Sean Connery, your mom, Peter Cullen, Patrick Stewart

Music:

Classic rock, prog rock, some rap and punk, country, 80s new wave....if it's good, I'll listen to it.

Movies:

Sci-fi and actiony things, anything made by the Monty Python crew or Mel Brooks, the occasional thriller or suspense flick

Television:

History Channel, old 80s cartoons, Comedy Central

Books:

Wheel Of Time, A Song Of Ice And Fire, Forgotten Realms, Louis Lamour, various gardening books and periodicals

Heroes:

My sister Heather since she beat cancer and that pretty much makes her tougher than anyone else I know
