About me, okay... I'll start with where I live and what I do. Currently, I'm wondering from state to state, so in a sense, I'm homeless. In the last 4 years I have set a home in Reno Nevada, Kansas City Missouri, Atlantic City New Jersey, Shreveport Louisiana, Los Angeles California, Las Vegas Nevada, Tunica, Mississippi and now Ledyard, Connecticut. So yeah, I get around, and why do I move around so much? Well that's because I travel with a stage show, "The Price is Right Live!" It's the stage show version of the popular TV show, The Price is Right with Bob Barker, (well now Drew Carey). It's what brought me to Las Vegas last year. I was also working on the Ultimate Poker Challenge at Binion's Las Vegas as a camera Op, but the poker show went under and now I'm back with the stage shows again. It's all good. I was starting to miss the whole directing thing anyway. Hey, if you get bored, check out my kick-ass websites:

My Interests

Dirt Bike Riding, Street Bike Riding, Soccer (any indoor teams out there?), Photography, Football, Roller Hockey, Scuba Diving, Wakeboarding, Water Skiing, Snow Skiing, Gymnastics, Swimming, Running, Lifting, Judo.

I'd like to meet:

Interesting people. People that want to do things, see places, and experience new things. I sometimes find myself not doing anything, so I always like it when I meet people that get me trying something new. For instance, my brother introduced me to scuba diving and dirt bike riding. My sister encouraged me to travel the world, so in 2005 I went to Thailand. Now I know I didn't "meet" my brother and sister, but you get the idea. I want to meet people that will introduce me to new experiences in my life.

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO MY DAD'S SERMONS!

Music:

I love soundtracks, so anything with Hans Zimmer and John Powell... I love! I also enjoy music by Moke, Menno De Jong, Dave Matthews Band, Maroon 5, and Muse. I'm not a huge fan of rap, although I can stand to listen to a little Will Smith. Country I can listen to, but only if a hot girl is making me.

Movies:

The Game... Holy crap, that's a great movie! Batman Begins is another one. In the drama catagory, Crimson Tide. And for comedy... Tommy Boy and Raising Arizona... A Classic! Oh. and The Peacemaker. Can't leave out The Peacemaker!

Television:

Family Guy, South Park, Malcolm in the Middle, Home Movies, Scrubs, Conan O' Brien and SNL occasionally.

Books:

I'll be honest here. I don't read too many books. I do however listen to financial books on tape. Those include, Rich Dad Poor Dad books and E-Myth Revisited. All a great listen!!!
