Licensed pyrotechnician in Oregon and Washington. Lead pyrotechnician for the annual July 4 fireworks show in Astoria, Oregon.

T-Shirt collector. If I can't find what I'm looking for, I'll make it myself. I prefer embroidery, but will settle for heat transfer if the design is too complex to embroider.

I was part of a group of Engineers at Tek that would periodically travel to Regina's Mexican Restaurant in Woodburn for Mexican cooking lessons. The result of these lessons was collected into a book (Beyond Tacos: Mexican Cuisine, ISBN 0-937383-00-7).
