| Introduction | I'm 25, I live at home, I have a temp job, and I'm paying college loans. Being all gung-ho about the new year, I'm trying to dive back into my writing with scripts and sketches. I'm not getting any younger, but I like where my life is right now for the most part. As you'll see somewhere else on this page, we've finished writing one skit and we've filmed it, and it's called The Bros. I'm happy that I'm being creative right now and putting something out there, but I also can't wait to get back to my own stuff. I'm done with one script, about my wacky antics at my job working at a pizza place, and am currently writing my second script, a new draft of my poker/car chase/mostly about nothing epic tentatively titled: "Saturdays". If I'm not on here, I'm watching other people's flicks and wishing I was them. |
| Interests | When I'm not wasting time watching the TV and movies that you see listed below, and listening to the music listed as well you could probably find me doing some of the following: Taking road trips, writing, reading old writing and trying to remember when I decided to become a writer, pretending to rock out but realizing I'm white and just...not that guy(hence me doing it in the privacy of my own room...seriously, it's the only reason I lock my door), hanging out in people's basements, playing video games and telling the same jokes and retelling the same stories that we have been for a decade, that have somehow remained funny all these years, making plans to take over the world with my production company(a guy can dream, can't he?), spending time sitting around and geeking out and theorizing about LOST, drinking with friends(but rarely to the point where I seem like a total jackass, because I KNOW that drunk, and no one likes that guy...no matter how many times he tells a good joke or tries to butter a bedsheet), playing poker in person and online and rarely winning but always coming back for more, living and dying by every pitch of every Yankee game, and did I mention road trips? I did. Ok, good...yeah, I love driving, and now I've got an old man car to cruise in all summer. It's gonna be a good one. |
