Biography

I was born and raised in the small town of Carroll, Iowa. Two weeks after high school graduation, I found myself starting out on a road that would eventually lead me to living in Japan for 10 years. I currently live in Chandler, Arizona where I sweat my ass off 4/12ths of the year.

I'm into guitar, songwriting, recording, music in general, computer geekery, fereen languages (a little French, a little more Russian, and a lot more Japanese), and martial arts, and I have a BS in Information Technology.

Are you insanely wealthy? Do you need a Renaissance Man to hang out with who will make you feel both smart and interesting? I'm your Huckleberry.
