About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find a place less boring

ABOUT ME

A 23 year old Canadian

I am a theatre technician working in and around the Edmonton area. working with lights, sound, stage carpentry, stage managing, making costumes, you name it.
I love it.

I am from Lloydminster which is on the Sakatchewan/Alberta border. It's a pretty great place if you enjoy flat landscapes and kick ass people. I can find you some pretty awesome things to do.

I have a beard

I'm pretty nerdy. but I won't try to one up you in being a nerd. (even though i totally could.) which is the worst part of a nerd.

PHILOSOPHY

ah! shit! I totally had something for this earlier today. I'll remember.

All of it. bring it
Folk music to the max,

Show me any Live Music and i'll probably love it.

Books: Big into comic books. Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller, soooo good.
Book Books? Douglas Adams, Oscar Wilde, GEORGE RR MARTIN
