About Me

Me? Well I'm a ... by occupation, an artist/musician at heart, a director/stage manager by training, a really good improvisational mechanic by heredity (didn't they used to be called inventors?) and in my daydreams I'm a builder and sailor of wooden boats and a FoodTV chef. I'm passionate about a lot of things. But mostly, (ALL kinds), art, old and vintage , /the , , The Mountains of (where I grew up), (my college major), and . Other qualities, good or bad, take your pick: wry, somewhat obscure sense of humor, LOVE my family, pretty good at putting together spontaneous adventures, type really fast for using only three fingers and modest (Is it even right to brag about being modest?), generous and considerate to a fault and frequently speak parenthetically.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Someone who is going to inspire my next song, because man, some days sitting there in front of that piano (guitar, mic, tin whistle, whatever) the well seems a tad dry. Other days, I get 15 ideas all while driving, drinking a 64 oz. diet coke, checking my voicemail, trying to figure out where I put that fucking pen, and looking for a receipt or anything to write the ideas down on that isn't already filled with my barely legible writing-while-driving scrawl. That stuff'll be worth something someday though, I bet. Anyway. Start inspiring me ............ NOW!
