About Me

I am a college student at Burlington County College. I hope to get a history A.A. and then go on to Rutgers or the College of NJ for my B.A. One day, I want to have a Ph. D. and be a history professor and teach somewhere and maybe write a few books. I enjoy writing and won a poetry contest at my college, look out Walt Whitman! I like hockey and am a diehard Flyers fan, love the Sixers, Eagles, and Yankees. I go to one or two games a year. I enjoy playing Tennis, practicing Karate, and exercising. I'm a big reader and love to go to Barnes and Noble or Borders. I love to go to Concerts and listen to loud music. I love to draw and make artwork on the computer and have made my own comic book, Maccabee Lady, which was a pretty big hit (if you want a copy just ask). I like to go to some local comic book conventions in Philly. I have a huge collection of comics and graphic novels, mostly I read comics because I enjoy them and to help me draw. My all-time favorite comic book and character is Superman. I mostly however read DC or Image Comics. I have met a number of top artists either just saying hi, in a function, and have traded comics or artwork with artists at shows. Not to brag but I have met some of the top artists and celebrities in the comic book industry. Like Andy and Adam Kubert, Kevin Smith (Silent Bob), Dave Mack and J.Michael Linsner. A friend and hero of mine is Al Wiesner the creator of Shaloman. I also love video games just got the X-Box 360.
