About Me
There's not much to say, except that I'm working every day to be the best writer and web developer (and human) that I can be. Other interests include Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (I'm a blue belt), Piano (I volunteer at the W.O. Smith school here in Nashville) and the psychological importance of reading fiction.
