A&S Advising

1.  In my spare time I read, enjoy movies and love to travel.  I’m willing to go almost anywhere I’ve never been before.

2. I don’t have a favorite movie, there are just too many to pick from, but my favorite book is “The Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” by Douglass Adams.

3. I’m kind of a “foodie” so I like to try new things.  When we travel, we’re always using Tripadvisor and Yelp to find local, out of the way places.  My wife and I also do a lot BBQ as well.  We have a BBQ smoker and she has created her own dry rub recipe.

4. I make short films on the side. I’ve never made a dime doing it, but it’s always a pleasure to create something that didn’t exist before. I also collect movie memorabilia.

5. Brush with fame? I’ve actually met a lot of my filmmaking heroes.  I’ve been lucky in that.  Two weekends ago I moderated a panel for George A. Romero at a local convention.  We had met a few times before, but it was a dream come true to moderate his panel and ask questions about his career that had NOTHING to do with Zombies.  He appreciated it as well.
