I’ve built telecom infrastructure for… 6-8 years? I’m the guy who figures out where the fiber optic cables go, where the communications towers are, and how we talk and send data across them. I have some experience with historical and environmental reviews and zoning for this type of work as well. Pretty experienced project manager and government procurement experience as well.
When I’m not working, I’m a pretty knowledgable cook, decent general historian (interest in weapons technology & military history), trained (former) demo guy, and frisbee golf enthusiast.

Visual Effects, 3D Modeling and Animation, Motion Graphics, Character Design and Animation, Graphic Design and a bunch of other CG related stuff in the field of Film, Broadcast, Interactive, Web and Print.
Expert in Cinema 4D, PhotoShop, Illustrator, After Effects, Final Cut Pro, Quark/InDesign, and a bunch of other crap. It’s all what I do for a living. My work is my hobby. I lurve it.
Main Interests: Physics, Astronomy, Movie Making, Hard Science Fiction, Story Telling in all its forms, Art and Illustration, Photography, Visual Effects, Animation, Graphic Design, All things Apple/Mac.
Basic Christian theology (the stuff held in common by the RCC, the EOC, and Protties),
End-Times Bible prophecy, Pentecostalism-Charismatism (I probably just coined that word), “Messianic Judaism”, various theories of the AfterLife, unorthodox Christian groups, Christian Rightism, Anglo-Israelism.
John Birchism (up to about 1990) & CFR-centered Conspiracy theory, general U.S. Conservatism, the real history of the Illuminati (1776-1785) and the myths.
UFOlogy- esp the Contactee era & the Non-physical theories.
Psychological theory esp. theories of Personality & Counseling.
Oh, add this in for me too. I have a better than average knowledge of American Animation. I worked for an animation art gallery for 10+ years (who’s eBay store I ran, see my previous post) so I know tons of obscure stuff as well as a good number of animators.
Medicare product management for the aged and disabled. If you have a question about Medicare Parts A, B, C, D or Medigap, I’m your girl.
I also have a masters in linguistics and worked as a professional archaeologist, so I can answer most questions about the development of languages in the Middle East, South America and archaeological questions on South America and North America, with a focus on pre-Incan mummies and lithics and midwestern mound cultures and southwestern Pueblo people.
Almost forgot - I also still freelance sometimes, so I can answer certain questions on local and national writer’s markets.
I can tell you almost anything you want to know about art supplies. It’s rare that questions come up around here, but that’s where I’m tops.
My formal training and hobby is animation, particularly 3D in Maya. I also sing, design, paint, write, fence, make movies, take photos, and a variety of related artistic things.
I also secretly wonder if I have a long-lost twin living near Detroit.
