    What are your hobbies/interests?  My friends and I like to film parody movies, and I do the editing and special effects. I especially love doing the special effects. Making effects for movies ior TV shows is what I want to do as a career. I?ve already started building a portfolio. When we?re not filming, I just like to hang out with my friends or my dad and play some video games. I listen to all kinds of music, especially Ska and Alternative rock, though I absolutely love classic rock as well. I also like to solve riddles and sudokus. 


Tell us three unique stories about you. Please be thorough and thoughtful.
(Ex. Major obstacles you overcame, funny anecdotes about your work, family, friends, etc.)

Story # 1:
Like I said, my friends and I love to film parody movies. We once had writer?s block so bad that we actually filmed a dramatic game of Uno dressed as our characters. We posted it online as a fake trailer, and people seemed to love it. Everything else we do that is between takes or on the side we throw onto what we call ?The Random Reel?, which is just a video of sheer insanity. I love it.


Story # 2:
Major obstacles in my life? When I was in 6th grade, my stepdad passed away of a heart attack. I remember waking up to it. A few years later my grandfather also passed away, and he and I were very close. I don?t take death too well, but I bottle things like that up. About two years ago, my mom was in a bad car accident, for the last year and a half my dad has been having heart problems, so family isn?t the best situated financially, so after experiencing college for a semester, I?ve had to sit it out.  Other than dealing with death and not being able to go to college, I?m happy to say I haven?t had too many hardships.




    Story # 3:  Every year for father?s day, my dad, my uncle, my sisters and I go fishing. Normally I don?t do so well, fish seem to think my bait tastes bad or something. But last year I had one really strong hit. I hooked the fish and it pulled really hard. I fought, and my dad almost came to help me reel it in, we thought it was huge, but when it finally got out of the water, it was probably the smallest fish I?ve ever seen. I was actually proud of the little fish for being able to eat the whole bait. To make things funnier, no more than 5 minutes later my dad had trouble with a fish about the same size, probably the same one!



What do you like/dislike about your job?  What inspired you to choose that career?
Well, I?m a delivery driver for a Pizza place. I love to drive, so I don?t mind doing the job, but it?s not guaranteed money as a lot of my pay depends on tips. What I love most about the job though is getting to interact with new people every day. It?s refreshing to know that there are some nice people out there still. I?d actually be in college right now, but my family has had some financial problems, so I had to sit a few semesters out. That?s why I?m working, putting away for school. I loved college during the time I was there, and would love to go back.


How would your family & friends describe you?
Funny, Determined, Hard-working, Charismatic, Energetic, Quick Thinking, Smart


Have you ever been in the spotlight? Explain.
Nothing major. I?ve been in a few competitions for ROTC and lead a platoon in a Veteran?s day parade in NYC. When filming with another group though, I tend to stand out when we are in the public. I don?t get embarrassed easily, so I?m able to act up and act out when I need to.


What are you most proud of in your life?
I graduated High School and did great on my SATS.  Though I was great on tests, I was never good with most written work. I?m terrible at taking notes on paper and writing essays, but I am a great audio and visual learner. Due to my bad homework and essay habits, I was generally a C student, but my SATS and the fact I did actually graduate let me know I am actually a bright guy. I am proud of that.


What is the hardest decision you?ve had to make in your life?
Staying in ROTC after my third year. There were some things going on in the unit that I strongly disagreed with, that messed up my senior year pretty badly, but after three years of dedication, I felt I would be small if I didn?t finish it out.


What is your biggest claim to fame?  (Ex. Raffle drawing, lottery, medals, awards.)
More ROTC stuff, I was the third highest ranked in the unit before I graduated and I was the most decorated cadet (I had the most ribbons/awards). I was also on TV very briefly, two of my special effects were featured through a contest, albeit they didn?t use my name or use clips where you could see my face.



Finish this sentence. You?d never believe it, but I?
I am in a stunt group, aside from the friends I normally film movies with. We film just about anything you?d see on Jackass and more. I do more of the public stuff, as I don?t get embarrassed easily. I love to see people?s reactions. I?ve been a mime, I?ve thrown myself down stairs, and I even took off my clothes when we found the Naked Cowboy in NYC, to try to upstage him.

I could practically be in the Guinness Book of World Records for?
Strangest use of spare time. I tend to learn a lot of stuff from Wikipedia. If I?m reading an article, I open all of the blue links in separate tabs, then read those and continue the process until I get bored. I do the same with Tropes, so I know all kinds of weird references too.

If you were going to write a tag line about yourself, you would summarize yourself in a line or two by saying....
(About me: ) ?What? He got the question already?!?


Have you ever appeared on television before (i.e. a game show, reality show, talk show or news programs, etc.)? If yes, please list all television appearances below, along with airdate(s) & prize money if applicable.
Never, unless you count being seen in the background of a Mets vs. Yankee game, and when two of my special effects clips were featured for about four seconds before Heroes.

Yesterday, sort of. I was on the verge of crying. Why? I got into an argument with a couple other people from #nsider and it got me really upset. I didn't really cry much though
