| Introduction | Advertising copywriting by trade, dancer and artist by night. I've been in Los Angeles for five years and I'm finally getting my shit together and putting on an art show. My past adventures have included: journalism, mental hospitals, building haunted houses, preschool jungles and cognitive psychology research. That means I can make play-dough, ask you good questions, scare the shit out-of-you, talk a foaming-at-the-mouth schizophrenic out of bashing your brains in for listening to his thoughts -- but it was really me doing the mental-ease eavesdropping. Just relax and be content that you're part of a bigger experiment. Credentials: M.F.A., Screenwriting B.A., Psychology/Journalism |

Maybe they interest you too: science fiction, horror, fantasy, gonzo journalism in milky white robot blood, writing poetry, yoga, astrophysics, cognitive science, boogie boarding, roller blading, dancing, digital art, the American Underground, npr, cyber-space, futile resistance, emoting in curled positions, stargazing, giggling at 3am, exploring caves by the sea, walking my loyal pup around Los Feliz . . . Finding things to do while I'm dead, such as ghostbusting. |
