Well, where shall I start? I'm currently working as a software tester at a company that markets and sells digital images and film clips all over the world. I've been working there since February, 2009 though I've been working as a tester for several years longer.

When it comes to my personal life, I'm married to a wonderful woman, raine. We have two cats, Miki and Storm. Miki's a sweet but increasingly mellow young lady. Storm is very friendly and rambunctious. I am a licenced private pilot which means I can fly single-engine light aircraft such as the Cessna 172. Unfortunately, the increasingly large expenses related to flying have kept me out of the air for a couple of years. Someday I hope to rectify that. I also enjoy riding my motorcycle whenever the weather is at least moderately nice.

I am a self-proclaimed geek, primarily of the computer persuasion. Of that time I spend on solo entertainment, a large portion is taken up by computer games. I also own an Xbox 360 and am on Xbox Live as TheRadarRider. My tastes in literature and movies tend to run in the standard geek vein; science fiction, fantasy, action-adventure, though I've also been known to enjoy a good mystery.

I've dabbled in a variety of musical instruments though I've never achieved what I would consider proficiency in any of them. Instruments that I've played include the cornet, clarinet, guitar, harmonica, irish whistle, doumbek (a type of drum), and didgeridoo.
