CURRENT MISSION

Get my pictures in a sweet magazine, and solve the Rubik's Cube in under 20 seconds.

ABOUT ME

I'm a professional photographer! I am also a math teacher! But not this year :) (jr high math or sleep in every day?) and now I'm just doing weddings, events, model shots, etc! http://www.phillipvn.com

I am generally interested in ANYTHING under the sun. I have been a host for many foreign students in the past, and I love to meet new people.

I will guarantee you that if you visit me I will help you have a great time seeing stuff you would never see on your own.

PHILOSOPHY

Basically, think outside of myself. Enjoy what is, and be happy without.

One of the most poignant things that I have ever experienced was volunteering in the Mother Teresa homes in Calcutta. It is hard, dirty, sad, and life changing.
