About Me

I moved to San Diego from the Colorado high country in the fall of 2006. It took me more than a year to decide to settle in and stay a while. Now I'm trying learn about this corner of the world and how I fit in. A lot of the time I feel like an anthropologist on a wacky research expedition: clearly, I'm still trying to find my niche in SoCal.

I stay busy playing upright bass, pondering the universe with my friends, cooking fine food, reading too many books at once, taking pictures of interesting subjects, and laughing at everyday absurdities that few others seem to notice. I make a mean espresso with my Gaggia, and am endlessly amused by anything Japlish.

You can find out a lot more about me on this site. There's the work stuff: my resumé, along with some examples what I've been doing for a living over the past 20 years. Then there's the personal stuff (you're in that section that right now) which is a lot more interesting, at least to me: lots of photos of me and my kids, places we've been and things we've seen; a little bit about the music I've been making over the past few years, and some random thoughts about coffee and things that amuse me.

If you're someone I haven't met, you've stumbled across this site for some random reason, and you actually find something here that you like, makes you think, or makes you smile, well, go ahead and introduce yourself. Make a comment, let me know your thoughts: add yourself to my guest book.
