 ong ago I was born, became fully bipedal, and developed language skills. Throughout my public school education I held on to my love of the arts, especially writing. I think it was that which made programming so irresistable initially -- it was like magic writing that produced effects, even in the absence of a reader or audience! Astonishing.
 have been through a few sublives. As a youth, the Canadian Numismatic Association awarded me the title of Junior Numismatist of the Year one year. Then I got into theatre, then studied psychology at university, then was sucked completely into the world of computers and the internet.
ast year an old friend from theatre days invited me back to Calgary to teach acting. That has been interesting. I've long thought I would make a good teacher, but have had a deep antipathy for the institutions within which teaching takes place, so never pursued it. It has also reawakened my old theatrical self, so if you see me at auditions in Calgary, don't be surprised!
am a graduate of the Vancouver Playhouse Acting School. I have a bachelors degree in psychology and archaeology, and a certificate in internet systems administration from the University of British Columbia. I am currently working towards a teaching certificate in voice and drama from the Royal Conservatory of Toronto. I'm interested in the big questions of Universe, as well as the smaller questions of earning a living. I'm a long term optimist, short term pessimist, and consequently would like to live for a thousand years to see how things turn out. |
