I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

New gig - work for Quintiles now after 6 years in TV news. Born and bred here - still call it home. Have a great girlfriend, great family, great friends, great dog and a great house. Can't ask for much more than that.

My Interests

Anything outdoors - backpacking, rafting, biking - you name it. Love good music too, especially stuff I haven't heard before. Also like to sing. There was a time when I was pretty good at it. Time and lack of opportunities to do so have taken a toll on the voice. But could a comeback be in the works??? Those who know me know I'm a big beer fan, I'm trying to extend my limited expertise to wines as well. I'm also working at becoming a decent cook - don't have nearly enough chances to do so. I'm not going to try some extravagant recipe if I'm the only one who's going to eat it.

I'd like to meet:

I'd love to catch up with anyone who's played a role in getting me where I am today.

Music:

Anything, sans newer, radio-friendly country.

Television:

24, The Office, Nip/Tuck (thanks, Alexandra,) Prison Break, etc. You'll also find quite a bit of Family Guy and Anthony Bourdain on the DVR. Also, if there's an ACC basketball game on, chances are I'll watch it for awhile. Go Deacs!

Books:

To Kill a Mockingbird, Touching the Void, Into Thin Air, Missing Links, The Greens

Heroes:

My dad. If I had his drive and work ethic, no telling where I'd be...

Today was tough

I never met Skip Prosser. He was hired after I graduated. The closest I ever got to the man was about 20 feet when I sat behind him at various Wake Forest - NC State basketball games. But damn, hearin...

Off the market!

Alexandra usually possesses impeccable judgement. However, today she agreed to be my wife. Ain't that something?

Go Deacs!

What a whirlwind 36 hours! Flew to Jacksonville late Friday night, drank pretty much from 10:30 Saturday morning through midnight (managed to squeeze in an appearance at the ACC Championship football ...

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!

  Big news on the job front. I've decided to call an end to my TV producing career for now. After 6 years in the business, the inconsistent hours and meager pay just weren't worth it anymore. Plu...

New Wheels

So I got another car, and amazingly, it wasn't because I wrecked the last one! After 5 years and 2 weeks of Volkswagen ownership, I decided it was time for a change. Was finally able to sell the GTI (...

Stupid F-ing Rain

  It's not often I make travel plans in advance - it's usually a last-minute thing. So naturally when I plan to head up to DC, show Alexandra the place, kick around some great museums, visit with...

Back again

It really sucks to come back to work after 8 days off. While it's like riding a bike, those first few miles are still a little bumpy. Anyways, Topsail was fun as always, but waaaaay too short. I am ma...

What Happens at Topsail...

  Stays at Topsail!  Words I've learned to live by. Heading out on vacation in about an hour. Four days at Topsail Island, followed by 3 days working on the house. Unfortunately, Alexandra i...

Back Again!

  For the 3 of you who read this, sorry it's been so long since my last post. Just haven't really been motivated to write much.   Had a good trip last weekend - 4 days of driving for 1 full ...
