About Me

I can usually be found in Hollywood working my life away as a creative director for an entertainment advertising firm designing movie posters. On the odd occasion I get out of my shackles, I may be wandering aimlessly at car shows, art galleries, concerts, or at the races with my white trash brethren. I surf the mighty longboard in SoCal, and during my annual excursion to Costa Rica. I live in Redondo Be-otch, and plan on global domination in the not so distant future. Starting with California!..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
