About Me
I'm the official [alive not dead] nerd. Welcome everyone and feel free to drop a line in my guestbook!
I'm online about 23 hours a day, do alot of computer programming, and watch alot of movies and anime. I'm lucky enough to have help create companies over the years that take advantage of all of these things. Some people might call m a bit anti-social while others think I'm very outgoing. It depends on what time of the day you reach me -- I can be super-focused on my work or I can be the life of the party when I'm happy. I try to be happy, level-headed, and I DO enjoy meeting new people if they're also nice, happy, interesting people.
Born in Ohio, grew up in Maryland and Los Angeles, then moved out to the San Francisco Bay Area to attend college at U.C. Berkeley. I was lucky enough to catch the dotcom boom after I graduated and, being already an online nerd, did a couple of online companies with friends. Eventually, my adventure led to China and now Hong Kong...
