i'm a twentysix year old college-graduate-turned-college-student-again from trenton, new jersey - the star of theeastern seaboard. i'm a scorpio, which gives me a free pass to go overboard on matters of the heart. i stand amighty six feet and four inches tall, and would make a hell of a viking, given the opportunity / appropriate hair.i'm currently attending mercer county college [yahoo] and working as the webmaster for ewing township . i also moonlight playing with toddlers at brighthorizons / bristol-myers squibb. i have a lovely girlfriend whose name is andie ; you can find her in my friends list.
some of the things that interest me include music, technology, music, design, art, music, language, things andstuff. i'm wildly fascinated by interaction - be it between people, objects, phenomena or any combination thereof. ihope to finish my second round of schooling with a master's of fine arts in industrial design , and use that passion to leave a positive mark on the world as we know it.
there's not much music i won't listen to [unless it's stupid, but even then ...], but most of my energy / attentionis directed toward rock and roll and electronic music. i'm a big fan of power pop [superdrag, gin blossoms,fountains of wayne]; noisier rock and roll [hum, appleseed cast, my bloody valentine, mineral]; sweet, sweet metal[amon amarth, maiden, sonata arctica, unearth, all that remains, burst, isis]; and the hardcore [drowningman, hopeconspiracy, american nightmare / give up the ghost]. in the electronic realm, i tend to go for drum and bass [londonelektricity, logistics, concord dawn, nutone, calibre, jenna g] and house [ellen allien, herbert, satoshi tomiie]tempo artists / tracks, and get entirely too excited over clever parts, innovative production, thick ambiance andoutstanding hooks. that excited bit really applies to all the music i listen to, to be honest.
ways i pass my time include being a lazy ratbag, making music [on the computer or in real life], making art [samedeal here], daydreaming, nightdreaming ... there's probably something else. oh ... guitar hero. i would also like to mention one of my favorite interweb distractions, http://www.trukz.com
here's a copy / paste of my old "heroes" section, cos i am, after all, a lazy ratbag:
catie is pretty rad and makes me thoroughly proud. second would beanyone who takes what they have - no matter how seemingly trivial - and tries with all of it to make the world abetter place. next in line would be people like global peacemakers, philanthropists, outstanding creative types,intellectuals of the highest degree and other blessed anomalies. beyond that, we're getting into muppet territory.

pretty much if it has bill murray, steve martin or meg ryan in it, it's cool with me. oh, and mandy moore movies, too.
