About Me

If you like the music on this page, it's from my best friend, Nick Pribonic. His band page can be found HERE
Born in April on an Air Force base circa 1986 @ Taylor AFB in Texas, I lived in Japan for about 3 1/2 years after that. Lived in Tampa for about a year after that until my parents realized how shitty the school systems in Florida were. Moved up to Indiana where I lived until 2nd grade when my mom and dad split up; my Mom moved and took us to Ohio where my Dad soon followed after. I've spent the last 14 or so years in Westerville, Oh and I'm damn proud of it. Apparently it's the 48th best US city to live in.
Went to a pretty good high school, dabbled in wrestling and lacrosse until I figured my calling was lacrosse and spent a shitty first year in Dreary Erie, PA. Got into a big fight with my then-coach and moved down to Tampa to come to Saint Leo and play lacrosse. Funny how life comes full circle, eh?
Along the way I've slipped up a few times, but who hasn't? Currently I'm teaching 2x a week at a middle school down the road on my way to a Social Sciences Education degree with a minor in English (graduation date 09). I've also made a ton of great friends along with a little lady by the name of Lauren I've found myself quite fond of.
I'm the kind of kid who loves a raging party with music blaring and beer pong playing as much as I love watching a movie with a few friends in the quiet setting of my own home. I'm your typical Midwestern boy who's seen the big lights of Miami, NYC and LA but wouldn't trade it for friends, my girl and a dog to play fetch with. That's where I've found my best friends and wouldn't have it any other way.
