I’m originally from Michigan and currently reside in Los Angeles, via Chicago and New York.

My creative background is in comedy, film production, and talent management (music and acting). I’ve also worked in corporate advertising/marketing, from reception to account management.

In my free time I treasure solitude, like to read, travel, play video games (Skyrim, Call of Duty, God of War, gamer tag is ArterySplitter) or board games, bowl, attend concerts (metal, opera, post-punk), pick up a new skill, learn Norwegian, learn about dark history (medieval, Victorian, Viking, Edwardian, mainly), and watch a lot of British comedy.

Favorite films: Hellraiser. The Lost Boys, Amadeus, Full Metal Jacker, Midnight in Paris, Deer Hunter, Taxi Driver, The Hunger, Dracula, What We Do in the Shadows, Moonstruck, Empire of the Sun. I like 1980s films. Historical stuff, of course. Nic Cage. Sci-fi, Fantasy. Werner Herzog.
