I have been happily married since August, 2006, to a wonderful woman named Heather. We live in a quiet neighborhood, with our little monster of a dog, Neo ("no, not like the Matrix... though that was a good movie"). Heather is a psychologist at UMKC and an adjunct professor at Avila University.

I am blessed to be surrounded by a wonderful family and community of friends.

By day, I am a Systems Support Specialist at Bernstein-Rein Advertising, a large independent ad agency in Kansas city. I primarily support Creative Macintosh users. By night, I am a freelance designer specializing in graphics for the web. My primary tools of creation are the Adobe Creative Suite, Macromedia Studio, and Bryce 3D. To inquire about my services, please contact me.

I have been playing guitar, singing, and writing for about fifteen years now. Music is my passion, my therapy, and my favorite way of communicating. I have had the pleasure of playing with many great musicians through the years. To learn more about my music, visit the music page.

I have a minor in Creative Writing and have attempted to keep active with it over the years. I have several poems that have been published and will hope to share them here at some point. For the most part, writing keeps me grounded and is just something that I love to do.

...is that I am an ordained minister with the Universal Life Church and have had the great honor of presiding over the marriage of several dear friends.
