I've given them a million stories about myself--this seems to be my current storyline. I'm a videographer here in Hagerstown, for a local NBC affiliate. My job entails going out and shooting, directing and ultimately editing the commercials that hit the airwaves. I get to be creative on a daily basis, which is a godsend. Ask me which ones I made, and of course I'll tell you the good ones. When I'm not at the station, I can usually be seen with my beautiful wife, Samantha, or just nosing around in used record shops. I also have an affinity for the outdoors, so when the weather's good I'm also bombing down a trail on my mountain bike, hiking a trail, or getting closer to rock whilst climbing it. When I want to be creative outside of work, I'm taking urban photography, and trying to write scripts for short Super 8mm/16mm films. I also have a partner in crime, my rabbit Bun E. Carlos. I'm the person a lot of people ask about music and films. Despite being removed from any place culturally exciting, I'm down with the good stuff. I'm a vegan as well.

I'm a big fan of treating people as you would like to be treated--if that's broken on human, plant, or animal I'm not a happy camper.

Riding my mountain bike. Walking around town. Hiking the AT. Watching films. Building my record collection. Endlessly daydreaming about making films.
