Interests
Right now, I have a full time job doing tech support for a major online University. Also, some friends and I are resurrecting our old amateur comedy series, Video Difficulties.
I'm also auditioning for film gigs. Cross fingers, knock on wood, et al... I'm getting serious about filmmaking in general, so I can always use a sounding board for scripts. I know I have talent and ability, so hopefully, opportunities will present themselves shortly so I can remove the word "amateur" from many of my activities. Phoenix is becoming more and more popular for independent filmmakers who need talented people in a right-to-work state.
I do also spend a lot of time with my daughter (although, not enough, frankly), finding new ways to be proud of her. She is one of the best things that ever happened to me.
I'm really good at Making bad jokes, decent spaghetti, pretty good steaks and excellent poodle tofu. I'm also good at creative writing (screenplays and the like), but I could use a few ideas on how to get them "out there." It's a pretty cut-throat business, so I don't have unrealistic expectations, but I'd at least like to get lined up for that potential right place at the right time opportunity. If you have any ideas, I'd love to hear them.
I am also good at being there when things are tough. I have a lot of friends with the same quality, and they've kept me from wallowing in self-pity many a time. I'm happy to return the favor. Karma works both ways, and I much prefer the good kind.
