About Me

I'm taking donations to pay for my MBA. I promise to remember the little people.

My Interests

My favorite thing is spending time with my wife and kids or my best friends.

I'd like to meet:

Meeting is not enough. I want to sit down and have pancakes with Prince... maybe play a game of basketball. Shirts vs. blouses.

Music:

I'm a little jaded by music right now... my favorites wouldn't be anything written within the last 15 years.

Movies:

[Nostalgic value] Indiana Jones Trilogy, Star Wars Trilogy, Back to the Future I, Karate Kid I & II, Tai Chi Master, Iron Monkey, Fist of the White Lotus, Goonies.

[Most Fun to Watch] Pirates of the Caribbean

[Most Underated] Basic

[Pretty Awesome Movies] Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Usual Suspects, Bourne Supremacy/Identity, Kung Fu Hustle, Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

Actually, this list stinks... I'm terrible at thinking off the top of my head.

Television:

Hands Down... The Cosby Show and a cup of Jello. LOST is my favorite show right now, unless Abrams pulls an Alias on us.

Books:

I have lots of books. I'm only reading the ones that DON'T interest me right now.. like "Strategic Management: Theory and Practice."

Heroes:

Jesus Christ and William Howard King (my father). Honorable mentions: John Piper, Louie Giglio, and the collective personalities of everyone that I hold dear to my heart.
