I am here for Friends

About Me

Greetings! My Parent's named me Jeremy Te Arawhata-o-te-rangi. I have a bunch of nicknames - generally people call me Jimm or Jimmy, though I also get called Jemjem (my Dad called me that when I was younger, I rue letting anyone else know that! haha)
I have a beautiful daughter named Lyric. I have her name tattooed on my arm.
I am studying for a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Film, TV and Media Studies...taking a while to get any progress on my degree so let's see what happens with it. Third time I've changed my major!
Im a musician by trade. Most comfortable playing guitar but can fake my way through most instruments. I have played in many bands and produced a whole bunch of artists as well. Bands I have played for:
Mission Gizzard, All Night Chemist, In Dread Response, The Gaze.
I am working on a musical project called Texakana - watch this space.
I have many jobs. Jack of all trades master of none as the saying goes. I work in Marketing for the QUality Education Group, but other sources of income include Stunt Performer, TV Presenter, actor, sometimes a pixie/pirate... I dare you to try and keep up haha. Gotta fund the whanau somehow.
I present a TV show for TVNZ6 call 'In beTWEEN' aimed at 10 - 14 year olds. It's an issue based programme airing most weekends which I present with Julia Wright - general all-round awesome chick who used to be on Sticky TV.
Generally very friendly! So let's do ice-cream!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Wes Borland. Josh Friese. Jeordie White. Matt Bellamy. Dave Grohl. Maynard Keenan. Josh Homme.
