I'm a Second City Detroit graduate and have been a cast member of the critically acclaimed Improv Inferno troupe.
I like to dress up and pretend I'm other people sometimes, too. You might see me in the occasional commercial, short-or-feature length film, or other assorted online video.
So, let's see...
Actor, musician, improviser, entrepreneur, former stand-up comic.
Yeah. I have done and sometimes still do some or all of those. And therefore I respect most anyone else involved in any of those pursuits. People doing what they love, and doing whatever it takes to do what they love.
Creativity is paramount to me. I enjoy originality, but I can still enjoy a new spin on an old thing. After all, most music is just the same chord structures, put together in different ways. I enjoy the avant-garde, but there's also comfort in familiarity. Good 'ol guilty pleasures, right? Things can still be every bit as enjoyable, even if they've been done before. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm artsy, but maybe more fartsy. Holla.
I want to boycott closed-mindedness. Belligerence. The tendency to act before thinking. Loudmouths. Small talk. Racism. Malls. Big trucks. Viruses. Earwigs. Scorpions. Lack of sleep. Deadlines. People who always think of themselves first. Tomato seeds. Debt. Bitter cold. Uber-conservatives. Baseball hats. Casinos. Organized religion. Major league sports payscales. Car repairs.
And I'm sure I'll add more later.
Things I approve of: Sushi. Performing. Video games - RPGs, mostly. Spare time to play video games (which I have none of). Witty banter. Introducing people to new music. Spicy foods. Snow days, or other unexpected time-offs. Finding forgotten money in a pocket. Finishing projects. Learning songs. Turtlenecks and warm coats. Autumn. Vacations. Toronto. Traverse City. Hot tubs. Red wine. White wine. Good beer. Martinis. Anime. Cats. Buying CDs. Hot showers. Computers. People who don't take things at face value. Photography. Singing. Road trips. Baseball. Ice skating. Street fairs. Girls with nice toes. Garden Fresh Salsa(tm). Giving gifts. Live music. Not having to work in the morning. COFFEE. Apples to Apples. Guesstures. Movies (see sidebar). Harmonizing. Nature trails. Pumpkin bread. Sunglasses on sunny days. Or at night, because Corey Hart says so. The 80's. Freedom. Self reliance and self confidence. Fancy pizza.
And I'm sure I'll think of more later, too.
So... that's a little about me. Anything you need, you just let me know. I got yer info right here.
