I first started writing at the age of 10, when I'd stay inside during recess on some days to write stories about action heroes and fantastic worlds. I've always considered myself a writer, even though for the past several years the motivation to put the pen to paper was lacking. I finally decided to do something about that, and as such I am pursuing freelance writing opportunities whenever they arise.
I like to write about things that I'm passionate about. As a huge geek, one of my favorite topics is video games. I saved up my allowance at age 5 to purchase a Nintendo, and I've been a hardcore gamer ever since. World of Warcraft is my flavor of the... past couple years. I'm currently the raid leader of a medium-sized casual raiding guild.
I'm also interested in table-top games, trading card games, and board games. I'm into media and pop culture as well. My other passion is music. I listen to music almost non-stop every day. Recently, I've been self-teaching drumming (with a little help from Rock Band).
