Not much to tell really. I have been very committed to church and God since I was little. I love movies, comics, reading, writing, acting, drawing, watching wrestling, etc.
I have been into comics since I was about 8 starting with Archie, Spider-Man and Iron Man, then advancing to G.I. Joe and all kinds of superhero comics, to now where I read any genre pretty much from DC, Marvel, Image and many indies.
I wanted to be an artist growing up and would draw for 10-17 hours a day every day. When I was 19 some decisions made me give up comics and drawing for about 5 or 6 years. I then fell in love with writing in college and started writing poetry and prose. I then got back into comics and have been trying to break into the industry as a writer for the past six years.
I also letter comics and I served as an Editor-In-Chief for three years for two smaller companies. I dabble in logo and web design as well.
Outside of comics I aspire to sing and act, and eventually plan to move to California. I'm getting older and it's soon going to be now or never. But I've had a passion for music and singing for as long as I can remember and have sang in church since I was 12. There's just something magical about conveying emotions through song. Singing is probably what I love most with writing a close second.
As for acting, I've always enjoyed playing other roles, but have only acted in church plays for 20 years, mostly playing Jesus. What greater part could there be though, right? But drama is something I've always wanted to pursue, but never could for various reasons. I want to try while I'm still young, regardless of what people think about it.
I also felt a calling to preach when I was 18 and am still heading towards that direction regardless of how conflicting that sounds. I have preached a couple of times, but setbacks have abounded. I am still committed to that walk though, and have a specific area I am pulled towards that kind of falls into place with everything else I want to do.
I graduated high school two years early at the age of 16 (I'm not as smart as that makes me sound though, trust me), then graduated college with a Bachelor's in Business Administration with a minor in Computer Science after taking five long years off from school. I also have Associates degrees in Computer Science and Business Management. Unfortunately I discovered I didn't like the computer industry and have worked crappy jobs I hate up to this point. Some people, I've learned, are cut out for the 9-5 office jobs. I tried to fit into that mold, but it's just not a good fit for me. I'm far too creative and can't stand monotony. That's not to say I'm lazy in the least bit, and I actually have a knack for that kind of work. But it's not what I desire to do for the rest of my life by any means.
So that's me in a rather large nutshell. ;)
