About me

Growing up with an older brother means striking back at an overpowering Big Brother Empire. Physically. Subversively. Fearlessly. Favorite retreats during ceasefires: The Arts! Vivid paints, a piano, tons of books. The outcome: a warrior artist. Good guy? Bad guy? Both. Even good guys carry dark matter in the soul.
