I am a playwright, actor, director, and Storyteller living in the City of Chicago. I play the tuba. I fix things. I am a sculptor. I am a graphic artist. I am a welder. I lay tile. I am a drag queen. I am a composer. I am a fountainmaker. I have a license to drive a forklift. I am a DJ. I am a mountain climber. I am a cyclist. I am a handyman. I am a singer. I am a percussionist. I am a cartoonist. I am a stage manager. I am a philosopher. I am an advocate of the Absurd.

Who I'd like to meet: myself from the future. He could tell me how to not make all sorts of mistakes, and maybe even take me back with him in his fantastical time machine, but then I would probably cease to exist.
Ok, scratch that. I'm good for now.
