About Me

Part-time hockey player, full-time corporate slave, computer nerd, movie nut, guitarist, tetris master, that sort of thing. I've been told that I'm a genuinely nice guy. I'm a big fan of escaping into stories, be they movies, television or a book. I have a bit of a sarcastic streak that I hide behind sometimes, but when it counts, I'm the type you can count on. I'm fueled by other people. A perfect description of me is Thin Lizzy's Cowboy Song, minus all the stuff about Cowboys.

I also like to draw vector images. Click here to see some stuff I've done.
