About Me |
|
I like to do my own thing on my own time, but by no means do I like to sit still. I enjoy a good challenge and figuring a clever way out of it, the art of the possible. The wheels are spinning all the time, at times I have trouble going to bed. Most of the time, I'm working at The Disinformation Company , an independent book publisher and DVD distributor based out of NYC. Check out what's new . I sometimes post stories to Disinfo's blog when I'm not nose-deep in editorial or discussing a design. Find me on facebook . Find your inner superhero with this personality quiz . My results: I am Iron Man (Inventor, Businessman, Genius). Iron Man 100% Spider-Man 80% Green Lantern 70% Hulk 65% Superman 55% Supergirl 55% The Flash 50% Robin 45% Wonder Woman 40% Batman 40% Catwoman 25% |

I'd like to meet:I like meeting people who are really passionate and smart about whatever they are doing in life. If you're really passionate about something in life, I enjoy a good debate. However, one thing we will not debate is green eggs and ham. I am not Sam. |
