Interests

  • General

    Wine, Travel, Ice Hockey, did I mention wine?, science, Web 2.0 stuff, my money, my Dog, my Saab, history, Theatre, music, but not friggin' poetry. Wasting money on real nice restaurants. Daytrips in tropical locations that involve excellent snorkeling, a BBQ lunch, and hordes of locals pedaling cheap "shell-market" trinkets. I also like architecture, maps, symphony orchestra concerts, history, and trashing shitty movies on Flixster. I also spend most of my time being married. I have never been arrested.

  • Music

    Music? Absolutely God-damned right! Look at my playlist, up above. See that? I am the project manager who made that happen for you, dear MySpace listener!

  • Movies

    Hannah And Her Sisters, Jaws, Godfather(s), Royal Tennenbaums, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Fightclub, The Verdict, Goodfellas...there are others....

  • Television

    After mid-June, the Stanley Cup Finals are over, so there's really nothing until the NHL Season starts up again in October.

  • Books

    To Serve Man (get it?)
    Also, The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer

  • Heroes

    George Bernard Shaw.

About me:

I work here. I am a Group Project Manager for this site (this one--the one you're browsing right now), and a major contributor to the PMO (Project Management Office) that improves process here. I toil night and day so that you can come here and enjoy our content offerings and meet like-minded individuals. Truth be told, this is a pretty damn exciting place to work, especially given that we'll be expanding some features beyond just the usual social networking meet people/message boards/have a nice day stuff. We have a great photo application, that rivals what you can do with some of the other photo sites out there. We have channels for all sorts of original content. Our events section is essentially a replacement for Evite. And, as some of you may know, last Fall we engaged in a very special music project in conjunction with the major record labels: MySpace Music (which I am proud to say I was the sr. project manager responsible for launching the product).
In fact, here are some of the particular MySpace projects I'm especially proud of (because they're all projects I managed...):
  • Launched 23 versions of MySpace.com in international countries.
  • Totally remade the site for MySpace Korea
  • Totally remade the site and migrated it to a completely new hosting environment for MySpace China
  • Launched the MySpace Developer Platform and MySpace Apps project, based on the Open Social standard. Go there and try out some apps.

    Aside from MySpace, I bring these other things to the table:
  • Married to a foxy, brilliant redhead, as seen by my top friend...
  • Awkward amateur ice hockey player
  • Avid fan of the NHL's worst team, the LA Kings
  • Classically trained theatre director
  • Failed actor
  • Lover of travel, wine, and good food
  • Former theatre critic for the O.C. Weekly
  • Worked for the Pacific Symphony Orchestra, back in the day
  • Owner of the world's sweetest German Shepherd

    • Who I'd like to meet:

      I showed this photo to my wife and she's insisting that I find it so we can adopt it.  I have no idea what shelter it's at.  I sent a message with the photo to the LA Animal Care group that put on the event yesterday and have yet to hear anything.

      Thanks Russell, it's a good place as it's big enough to be credible, but small enough that I can help to really make a change.Am doing some business analysis as well as dev work, and we also get invloved in operations/the live site so lots to keep me interested :-)     Hope you're well ! !
