I draw comics and make things after picking up time consuming archaic hobbies. Usually I make a schedule and then end up attending completely different things.

I am passionate about environmental protection, spreading awareness and understanding through interactive educational wildlife and nature programs and reaching out to the world through expressive art forms. I love historical-based cosplay and dressing up for every occasion. Superheroes were the lifeblood of my childhood and I still love swords, nerf guns, and roleplay.

Aka The Guy They Used To Call Munchkin Guy. It's a long and sordid story but the short version is I used to be the guy who spent all weekend running Munchkin. Now I'm the guy who spends all weekend running everything *but* Munchkin. Some people look forward to Christmas all year, me, I look forward to Con and spending four days playing silly board and card games when I'm not dancing(badly)or fighting in the boffer pit. Looking forward to seeing all of you again this year!

It's not a lake.

It's an ocean.

I like science, technology, writing, music, art, the internet, video games, and any and all permutations of these things.

I'm a loner, so be aware that if you ask me to hang out I really don't want to but will do it anyway because I like you.

If you really want to get to know me--really know what moves me--listen to every single episode of WNYC's Radiolab. http://www.radiolab.org/archive/

Hungry explorer, asking questions of the wind, looking for the fire. I'm a composer, musician, and teacher just trying to make it in the big, wide world; who can't seem to get away, discovered, or my sanity back. I'm slightly obsessive compulsive, and obsessed with storytelling in all forms. I defy labels people try to stick to me, especially those that dictate socially to others either who I am as an individual or what I may or may not believe. I love conversations about theology and philosophy, and will gladly share if you are curious about what I actually believe. According to th… Read more
