I consider myself a minimalist, a perfectionist, and obsessed with efficiency. I hope that this website conveys those qualities. Of course I am far from being a cold, calculating machine. My humor components are in good repair and functioning well above accepted levels.

Despite what the profile states above, I am first and foremost a husband to my wife and father to my son. They are my strength in life, I couldn't do what I do without them. After that I am a student at OSU studying Business Administration with a Minor in Writing. I'm hoping to begin my career as a Technical Writer. I would like to eventually write for an entertainment software company or manage a creative team at a film production studio. My dream career, of course, would be to exclusively write and publish fiction or start my own software entertainment company.

Right now I support myself and my family by working as a Desk Lead (sort of a middle-manager) at the Computer Helpdesk Department c/o Oregon State University.

I enjoy writing (obviously), reading (mostly SF right now), and lots of gratuitous X-Box gaming (much to the chagrin of my wife).

Please stop by the collective_library [portfolio] section. There are a few good stories in there (most are works in progress) and some video game reviews. If, by some stroke of unimagniable luck, you are a publisher/editor and like my stuff please drop me a line. My resume is also included there.

Also, be sure to visit my friend's blog/discussion forum 'Are You Sand or Stone'. We usually have some kind of interesting conversation going on in there. Usually about politics or video games.
