About Me

Despite having done so much, I as yet do not seem to meet Wikipedia's 'notability' requirements. It's kinda hard to achieve that lofty standard when you are an independent, 'DIY' creator and entertainer. So, until I gain the 'proper level of eminence' (which almost always entails 'selling-out' to a major media entity ...a vile thing I vow never to do) I'll just have to be content by saying a few words about myself here.

Born in the 'Summer of Love' of the year 1967, early-on I was heavily influenced by the rock music prominent in my youth. At Jellico Elementary I began playing guitar with my schoolmates and have been been a member of various bands ever since. During my service with the US Army I was proud to be a part of the 2nd ID's Soldier's Show while stationed in Korea. After I came home to the states, I found a job as an audio technician and on-air disc jockey in broadcast radio (WEKC/WEKX) and subsequently did some video production for cable television in the south-east of Kentucky. A little later on, during the mid '90's, I attended the Art Institute of Atlanta seeking a degree in 'Music and Entertainment Business Management' with a focused concentration in audio/video production. Since then, I have worked as a sound engineer for live-sound companies and also at Dollywood, USA. When the Internet came along and the .mp3 format and file-sharing began to really take off, I became involved online in the 'DIY' free-culture and independent music community that the wonders of modern technology have greatly further enabled. I even went so far as to devote many years as the chief administrator of the Boycott-RIAA website where I earned many gray hairs and an ulcer or two striving to educate folks regarding the evils of corporate media and the monopolistic abuses perpetuated upon us by the 'powers that be' within the marketplace.

As a teenager and in my youth, I was enamoured of fantasy and science fiction literature, leading me into the table-top role-playing hobby where I most often took up the mantle of 'game-master'. Never satisfied with the various available rulebooks, I began developing my own gaming systems to go along with the settings I'd create.

Drawing and other crafts (such as making things by various techniques out of wood, paper, clay, etc.) have always been an intrest of mine as an artist. I also enjoy cooking. I am very fond of animals, especially cats, but I'm not a vegitarian. The natural beauty of the outdoors is a thing I treasure.

Now, go find some of the works I have created!
