Preface

I'd like to begin by explain why I created this site and why I spend too much time maintaining it. This site was created as I was applying to graduate schools and I had to put my life in order (so I could then put it down on paper in the applications.) I quickly realized that I never again wanted to (nor did I think I'd be able to) dig through all my old papers, records and whathaveyous, to collate all the data on where I've been and what I've done. I was doing a lot of HTML design for work at the time so that's the format I chose to store my life's history. The design is after my baby book, the oldest record I have, which my parents kept in a big drawer in my house but has since vanished in the course of several moves. As this site is my representation of my life and by me, I added the security features so there could be no doubt that what is written here is by me, any errors or misrepresentations are my own, this is my life so far.

As with anything this is shaded by my perspective. I'm sure it is a perspective that tries to keep me in a favorable light to promote my internal self-image. With that said I've put my whole life out there, nothing was hidden for editorial reasons although it's impossible to capture an entire persons life in a few pages. This has all the background information (considerably more actually!) that I've put on any resumee/application/submission. With all that said, dear reader:

I humbly present our play.
