I think of myself as an optimistic pessimist, a cross between Yoda and Toby Ziegler.

The five mantras I tend to live by:

1. "If you want peace,prepare for war."
2. "Treat others how you wish to be treated."
3. "If you live in shit, your work will be shit."
4. "Make love to your work."
5. "Do. Or do not. There is no try."

Like every other human being, I am a walking contradiction. I do not trust people easily, but I will always go out of my way to help someone. I have faith in humanity, even though people can be inherently mean. (But that faith is being tested a lot lately). I am by no means a neat freak, but clean up after myself and want to leave things better than I found them.

As an individual with cerebral palsy, my racing mind does not always match my mouth or hands. Let alone all the ideas and thoughts that I try to express or create. But I do my best to act on them and not merely try. No matter how much I fail. "A person can better be judged on their failures than their success."

I am at my happiest discussing film, television shows, comic books, and video games. I enjoy trying to understand how something works, whether it be a story, app, video game, or device, and helping to contribute to making it better.

This Blog is a small representation of the thoughts and ideas that race around and explode in my head (I tend to call my best ones brain farts 🙂).
