Interests and Personality

BiographyI spent the better part of childhood in both Virginia and Massachusetts, so I have an accent which fits neither region. I got through highschool with fairly good grades, and a healthy disrespect for most of my peers. I was accepted at Massachusetts College of Art, and spent 5 amazing years amongst other artists. I spent a year as a Metals major, but then switched to Illustration. In 1999, I took a year off to move to Port Townsend, WA with my family. It was incredibly beautiful, and was beneficial to my artwork and attitude towards people. I moved back to Boston in 2000 to finish at MassArt, and graduated in 2002. I spent the summer of 2002 backpacking along the CA coast and returned to WA. In September of 2002, I moved to San Francisco, and got a job with an Archaeology firm, and have been there ever since. There's way more to the story, but I'm kind of tired of typing.
