About Me

OMG! Thanks peeps for voting at Jumpcut. I won $250 worth of movies! Hoorrray! If you want to see the video, CLICKHERE

I am Norwegian/Native American/African American--so you don't have to ask ;)


I have a really immature sense of humor.
I believe life is a tremendous gift and so much more than what we can contemplate.
My biggest fear is to become one of those MACHINES out there.

I LOVE MAKING MOVIES.


I'm a pretty good writer. I sold a story to Ellegirl a couple years ago. I've won awards and what not.
I am double jointed in my wrist and have special folding, roll, flip powers with my tongue... no joke.
I am insecure sometimes, confident at other times-- aren't we all?
I had my own show in Oregon... I hope you NEVER find the footage.
Some people let rules and dictators shape who they are-- considering where and how they grow up. Open your eyes and see that there's so much more...so much!!

"How happy is the blameless Vestal's lot! The world forgetting, by the world forgot. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd." -- Alexander Pope
“Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength."
"Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy."
"'Come to the edge,' He said.
They said, 'We are afraid.'
'Come to the edge,' He said.
They said, 'We can't. We'll fall!'
'Come to the edge. He said.
They came.
He pushed them...and they flew."
--Guillaume Apollinaire

Religious Joke

Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?"...

I'd rather be a gear in a big deterministic physical machine than just some random swerving

 In a way, in our contemporary world view, its easy to think that science has come to take the place of God. But some philosophical problems remain as troubling as ever. Take the problem of free ...
