About Me

Born and raised in southern California. 29 years later it spat me out to Seattle Washington. I exist where science and art collide. I'm not as eccentric as I look. I'm far too practical to be that pretentious. I like categorizing things but I don't like myopic characterizations especially about me "because I am so complicated!". Despite that ambiguity I believe in balance and consistency so there is order within this chaos. I look serious but I try not to take myself too seriously (dont fear). I also live by the golden rule so I'm forgiving but don't make me get all assertive on your ass (fear me). I'm kind and polite however I’m not politically correct. I like to call it as I see it so relax and don't hop on some social sensitivity high-horse. I see B.S. as plain as day even though I play along to save face. Sometimes when I'm falling asleep I unravel the mystery of the universe then I suddenly wake up and forget it all (damn!). My profession is computers. That means I’m always here so say hello! I wish I had the power to delete bulletin surveys. Private profiles drive me nuts too! This prevents me from sending gorgeous women unique comments like “Damn you’re hot!" Works every time. Basicly I’m a better looking version of Al Bundy because Im married with children get it? I slay me.

My Interests

photography, graphics, video production (editing), motion graphics, CGI special effects, 3D animation, 3D modeling, DVD authoring, video compression, computer hardware, history, military, science, leather working, sewing, fine German cutlery, curves, running, hiking, nightclubs, espionage.

I'd like to meet:

I'm here to make friends and influence people. I also want to meet people who love to hate things like Disneyland, cats, ACLU, cellphones, monkeys and SUVs. For the most part I’m here cultivating my existing beloved friendships but sometimes they bore the hell out of me and I need some new blood! I'm kidding (keep that between us ok?) I’m not looking for anyone to stroke my ego and agree with me all the time however a little agreement would be nice from time to time, especially stroking my ego :] A lot of people claim to be open minded as do I. However I actually embrace both ends of the spectrum. That doesn’t mean I agree or like everyone. It just means everyone has a place, even you. I admire those who don't conform to stereotypes. Especially those who can backup their opinions. Those of you seeking addition as a friend keep in mind flattery will get you everywhere. Don’t be shy just say hello first. If you're an employer or extended family member you should be ashamed of yourself. One last request, know how to take a compliment.

Bla-didi-bla stuff like that. You can safely assume many others along those lines. You'll have to ask me what my guilty pleasures are. You hear that??? GUILTY PLEASURES!

Leaving Los Angeles

I tried to warn everyone so this wouldn't come as a total shock. My wife Jennifer was offered a very well paying position deserving of an LCSW in the Seattle region. She has accepted and this mea...
