What's new?

July, 2005
Ok, now it's REALLY REALLY REALLY been a while. I apologize, I owe lots of pictures. But, I've been busy moving into my new apartment! That I bought! Yes, that's right, I have now achieved the American dream, I am overwhelmingly in debt. I mean, I'm a homeowner!!! Will try to get some pictures up before we get our dog...

April, 2005
Just when I thought I had some free time I go and get a new job (still at JPM, just in a different area). So, learning a new business, new application, etc. etc. yawn yawn. Except that I really do like it - my boss is awesome, it's a step back towards what I wanted to do, and it truly is interesting. Once I get settled at the new job maybe I'll have some time to update the site!

February, 2005
See I was gonna get pictures up here but then I got dragged down to Atlantic City for this silly 180+ person Texas Hold 'Em tournament....and then ended up winning the whole damn thing (go figure)! So once again, another excuse for not updating the site. My apologies!

December, 2004
I'd like to report that I've been up to a lot, but apparently (so I'm told) I just turned 30. Personally, I don't remember any of it, but just in case you're curious why you haven't heard from me, that's why. Pics to follow sometime.

April, 2004
Well, it's been a while, has it not? Where have I been and what have I been up to you may ask? Two things, really. Well, ok, three things. One, getting fat from sitting around all winter. Two, playing poker. Lots of poker. Poker at home, poker online, poker at friend's places. Not just any poker, Texas Hold 'Em, of course. More on that later. And three, just got back from vaca in the Florida Keys. I HIGHLY recommend taking a trip there. The weather was perfect, the people were perfect, the dolphins and birds and everything else were just awesome. And oh yeah, been working at that job thing, too. Still waiting on Lotto!

October 6, 2003
Just got back from my good friend Paul Massaro's wedding and posted a page with his pics. Finished Steph's slide show and redid the landing page for her wedding as well. Busy busy busy!

October 3, 2003
Finally got one slide show (Steph's wedding) working. Figured out how to resize pictures (relatively) easily, so it's only a matter of time 'till I can get a bunch more up there! Take a look!

September 25, 2003
Redid the site without the fancy code but with a fancy left nav. Put in placeholders for some of the links. Things actually work now!

September 23, 2003
The Site is registered and everyone in the world can see it! (Of course, nothing on it works, but who's keeping score!)

Who am I?

Well, if you made it this far, you probably know the answer to that, but, here goes. I'm a 33 year-old native New Yorker, born in Mount Sinai hospital, lived here all my life, including college. I graduated from Columbia University in '96 and '97 with degrees in Political Science and Mechanical Engineering. (See my resume on the left if you want to know more about all that boring stuff.) I used to be a regular attendee at Jake's Dilemma (see the left again), I'm a regular fooser there (albeit not a very good one, but...), and I'm living up in Harlem with my dog and 2 cats.

What do I like?

A lot of stuff, but in no particular order, scuba-diving, snowboarding, rollerblading, hockey, foosball, darts, paintball, skydiving, beer-brewing, wine tasting, photography, distance running, animals - all sorts of animals, fantasy baseball and football, travel, politics, and a whole bunch of other stuff.

OK, What do I love?

Danica (my dog), T2 and Slinky (my 2 cats), and Leila (my mom's dog). Food, wine, beer. Sports. More sports.
