i’m a 31 yr. old (eek!) male, happily married with one son, gavin, and one daughter, lilah. with erin , i started arcane palette creative design — a web design studio hell-bent on spreading awesome, artistic design to the masses.
i get my rocks off from technology, hacking html and css, watching (good) anime (like, say, trigun, neon genesis evangelion, his and her circumstances, lain), making/listening to music, and being generally a nrrd. having worked in the specialty department at whole foods for about a year, i’m a bit of a food snob, and my favorite cheeses are cambozola, dubliner with stout, cowgirl creamery’s mt tam, and humbolt fog i like amano chocolate, fran’s salt caramels and truffles and bissinger’s chocolate barks. curry puffs (especially from Sawadee Thai Restaurant) are like thai food heaven. i also like vietnamese food and sushi. my musical tastes are eclectic, but you can’t go wrong with some saul williams or nine inch nails. you can check me out on last.fm or the arcane palette page on blip.fm to see what i’m listening to. right now i’m playing a lot of borderlands, but i also play a lot of guild wars and classics like civ 3 and heroes of might and magic 3. i recently started a tumblog where i stash all the open tabs of stuff i’m reading or meaning to read.
