About Me

My hobbies include backpacking, scuba diving, hunting, traveling, collecting paper money, history, aviation, archeology, films, art and museums of all types. I am fortunate to have traveled to 19 countries and 35 U.S. states. Whether I am taking in big city night life or relaxing on a cool granite slab in the High Sierra, I always find something to appreciate and enjoy.

I chose this carrier field because the diverse creative and technological challenges suit my eclectic personality

I like to learn as much as I can about the Digital Media industry. In the past year I have built my own blog, pay-per-click site and forum. On any random night, I may be logged into Lynda.com learning new software or brushing up on existing skills. I am a memeber of the Project Management Institute (PMI.org) and I study their materials often.The technologies and uses of Web 2.0 particularly fascinate me. Social bookmarking, social networking, RSS feeds, forums, blogs and on-line applications like Google Docs are greatly influencing and helping to shape our culture.

I traverse the worlds between creative and technical. Just as I am attracted to the bustle of a big city
and the solitude of a mountain meadow, I enjoy working on high-concept creative and switching gears
to solve a management or IT problems.
