I studied journalism at Texas A & M University, where I volunteered as a deejay and Program Coordinator for KANM Radio. My favorite class was the "History of Film", where I learned an appreciation for Sergei Eisenstein, Fritz Lang, and other master filmmakers.
As an active member of the now defunct Austin Cinemaker Co-op, I participated in the "Make a Film in a Weekend (MAFIA") and "Splice of Life" filmmaking events. As a result, I collect Super 8 cameras and film.
I've spent a lot of time volunteering at movie premieres in Austin for South by Southwest Special Venues Crew, and enjoy being on the red carpet side of things now. Here's hoping my photojournalism class from Texas A & M stuck with me!
My favorite genre is science fiction, having grown up watching "Them" and "Forbidden Planet" every time it was on TV. First movie I recall seeing in a movie theater as a child was a Sergio Leone flick with Clint Eastwood.
My general blog is A Geek of Small Consequence and I also write beer articles as the Austin Craft Beer Examiner.

I'm a freelance writer who also happens to love movies. I feel very lucky to live in Austin, where you can see a free movie at a venue every day if you want, and which offers such a wonderful range of movie screenings and events. So I decided to share the news about Austin film by founding Slackerwood. I'm a contributing editor for Cinematical and work on a variety of other writing and editing projects.

I knew I could no longer deny my film addiction when a friend challenged me to track the films I saw in a year, and final tally was triple digits. In theaters. Genres mean less to me than good stories and story telling, and I lean heavily towards independent films. I'm thankful to like in Austin, where I have a lot of kindred spirits, and a community that both celebrates and supports film. I've been writing about film for years, and I'm honored that I can contribute to Slackerwood. Now if I can just finish that screenplay...
