Title:​ ​Dude

Married/Single:​ ​Super​ ​Single

Kids:​ ​0

City​ ​you​ ​live​ ​in:​ ​Chandler

A​ ​typical​ ​day​ ​in​ ​my​ ​life​ ​includes…​ ​

editing,​ ​editing,​ ​editing.

I​ ​was​ ​born…​ ​

in​ ​Lake​ ​Forest,​ ​Illinois.

My​ ​favorite​ ​thing​ ​about​ ​Arizona…

so​ ​many​ ​things,​ ​readily​ ​available​ ​to​ ​nature,​ ​beer!,​ ​those​ ​sunsets tho…

I’m​ ​listening​ ​to​…

​the​ ​sounds​ ​from​ ​where​ ​Jazz​ ​and​ ​Hip-Hop​ ​collide.​ ​“s!x​ ​Music”​ ​on​ ​Youtube​ ​is​ ​a​ ​good place​ ​to​ ​start.

My​ ​family…

is​ ​goofy,​ ​an​ ​odd​ ​one​ ​for​ ​sure.

If​ ​I​ ​could​ ​have​ ​dinner​ ​with​ ​anyone,​ ​it​ ​would​ ​be…

hmmm…Gary​ ​Vaynerchuk​ ​would​ ​be​ ​cool.​ ​Locally wouldn’t​ ​mind​ ​hanging​ ​with​ ​the​ ​Wilderness​ ​Guys,​ ​Patrick​ ​and​ ​Jonathan.​ ​Go​ ​for​ ​a​ ​hike​ ​and​ ​drink​ ​lol.

One​ ​thing​ ​I​ ​cannot​ ​live​ ​without…

is​ ​craft​ ​beer.​ ​I’m​ ​the​ ​guy​ ​who​ ​holds​ ​on​ ​to​ ​craft​ ​beer​ ​in​ ​the​ ​fridge​ ​for a​ ​year​ ​and​ ​opens​ ​it​ ​with​ ​friends.

When​ ​I​ ​was​ ​younger,​ ​I​ ​wanted​ ​to​ ​be…

Spider-Man,​ ​a​ ​stand​ ​up​ ​momic,​ ​a​ ​pilot…

I’m​ ​inspired​ ​by…

art.​ ​Certain​ ​photographers,​ ​including​ ​local​ ​talent​ ​Ocean​ ​Marcus​ ​Allen.

The​ ​one​ ​person​ ​who​ ​motivates​ ​me​ ​is…​ ​

Gary​ ​Vaynerchuk​ ​most​ ​definitely.

If​ ​I​ ​could​ ​change​ ​anything​ ​in​ ​the​ ​world,​ ​it​ ​would​ ​be…

I​ ​mean​ ​c’mon,​ ​peace​ ​in​ ​the​ ​Middle​ ​East​ ​for​ ​sure.

The​ ​perfect​ ​day​ ​would​ ​be…

on​ ​water, ​drinking​ ​beer ​and​ ​grilling.

My​ ​first​ ​job​ ​was…

making​ ​subs​ ​and​ ​it​ ​was​ ​very​ ​unpleasant.

My​ ​favorite​ ​escape…

is​ ​taking​ ​photos​ ​quietly​ ​somewhere​ ​with​ ​a​ ​talented​ ​model.

My​ ​life…​ ​

is​ ​structurally​ ​unsound.

I’m​ ​currently​ ​working​ ​on…

the​ ​Tap​ ​That​ ​AZ​ ​Podcast,​ ​a​ ​music​ ​video,​ ​and​ ​a​ ​documentary​ ​on​ ​the homeless​ ​crowd​ ​in​ ​Arizona​ ​and​ ​the​ ​west​ ​coast.

Always…

be​ ​open​ ​to​ ​go​ ​with​ ​the​ ​flow,​ ​why​ ​are​ ​your​ ​plans​ ​the​ ​right​ ​way?

Never…

keep​ ​your​ ​expectations​ ​up​ ​for​ ​people,​ ​you​ ​can​ ​be​ ​surprised​ ​more.

Favorite​ ​Quote…

“Just​ ​Start.”

Biggest​ ​Dream…

is​ ​to​ ​produce​ ​video​ ​and​ ​to​ ​live​ ​in​ ​Europe.​ ​Specifically​ ​Berlin,​ ​Germany.

My​ ​Pet​ ​Peeve(s)…

are​ ​many.​ ​But​ ​most​ ​notably,​ ​never​ ​being​ ​able​ ​to​ ​put​ ​time​ ​with​ ​certain​ ​people​ ​on the​ ​calendar,​ ​because​ ​they​ ​say,​ ​“Hey​ ​man,​ ​let’s​ ​hangout!”​ ​and​ ​you’re​ ​all​ ​like​ ​“Yeah,​ ​let’s.​ ​When?”​ ​and then​ ​just​ ​silence.​ ​​ ​They​ ​then​ ​come​ ​back​ ​to​ ​you​ ​like​ ​“Why​ ​don’t​ ​we​ ​ever​ ​hangout?”​ ​and​ ​you​ ​just​ ​have to​ ​shake​ ​your​ ​head.
