About Me

photographer. urban explorer extraordinaire. fixer of most anything. runner. asthmatic. non-smoker. southpaw. i take photos as a way to express myself when pen and ink cannot. music is my passion and my sanity. without it i would surely die. love the smell of rain as it hits the pavement. i take my women intelligent and my steak medium-rare.


some photos by yours truly...


if you're not seeing or hearing the music, try me in IE. please and thank you.
Useless Information: the first product that the toy company mattel came out with was picture frames. a dime has 118 ridges around the edge. the life expectancy of a garbage disposal is about 5 to 10 years. an artist from chicago named dwight kalb created a statue of madonna made out of 180 pounds of ham. caterpillar means "hairy cat" in old french.

Dislikes... Napoleon Dynamite, the smell of cabbage cooking, John Mayer, baboon asses, Scotch [the drink, not the type of tape], riding backwards on the L, Seinfeld, dust, blue ink pens, cigarette smoke, comic sans font, college-ruled paper
