Just a down-to-earth country bumpkin from the Rockies in Montana. My parents Lead a nomadic lifestyle, moving all over Montana and Idaho; I attended 11 different schools before graduating. It seems their free spirit is one of the traits I adapted, as I have worked my way into a position that requires quite a bit of travel. Ive had the pleasure of visiting many little Colorado towns, as well as most of Utah, and a brief spell in Cinncinati, OH. I Love pushing myself to new limits, meeting diverse personalities, and making life-long connections in my travels.

I consider myself an aspiring author, as I have an insatiable passion for writing; specifically fiction. I like to farm, get out in the woods, explore new territories, meet new people from all walks of life, try new things, and am driven by inspiring imagination in others. One business I am currently building is a summer camp that will get kids away from their technologized lives, and teaches them leadership and others valuable principles through reacquainting them with the art of pretend.

I believe in the golden rule, law of attraction, fairness and equality, authenticity, leadership, giving back tobthe world, and accepting responsibility for my own life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hmmm... I wonder if this answer has limits on length.

I like all kinds of music from Brian Caín, Howard Shore, Hans Zimmer, and more classical instrumental performers to Avenged Sevenfold, Trivium, and Asking Alexandria. I dig grunge like Nirvana, Butthole Surfers, and Sonic Youth and alternative artists like Modest Mouse, Gorillaz, and Shaun and the Marauders. Country music feeds my soul and invites memories of my roots, and my heart beats to the tune of Irish Punk like Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys. I find rap to be an awe inspiring talent and love to listen to originals written by aspiring rap artists. I must add that rap really only speaks to me if it carries some substinance and originality. Finally, my favorite music to move my feet to is electroswing. Check it out.

Oh books..
I am a child, the only one I've met to date, who was grounded from reading on a regular basis. I get my nose in a book, and cannot do anything else until I've finished it, and any sequals it may have. I adore thrillers|mysteries, especially if they are written by James Patterson, my all time favorite author and highly regarded role model, or Mary Higgins Clark. I also have read every great fantasy from Harry Potter, to Game of Thrones. I enjoy a good western, and have dabbled in scifi. Sappy romance novels are the only books given to me that collect dust.
Currently reading: Frank Beddor's Looking Glass Wars.

I enjoy a good slapstick comedy in the evening, or on ocassion a thrillers, but am more into headgame thrillers than those gory movies that lack story line.
