My primary profession is with an ISP as an Assistant Sales Manager for the commercial side. So I work with businesses to get them hooked up. I typically have two or three jobs at once so my secondary job currently is with a local tech company that integrates new equipment/services with antiquated systems.

Side projects:
- Momocon: http://momocon.com/
- Momocon On tour: http://momoconontour.com/
- Filmmaking: I am working on building a foley house and have bought and sold movie equipment for many years.
- Writing - short stories (mostly espionage and pulp detective stories), pitched a tv show earlier this year, and occasionally I write (poorly) for Racket.

Oh, I also speak at Universities. In fact I'm being featured in "Stocknotes" East Carolina University's business magazine, and have been to speak on an expert panel.

I also do stand up comedy, although I've only performed in Chicago and DC, but not two bad cities to start out in.

So, I'm running on all cylinders.

edit* I also used to fight in MMA matches, but like playing video games, I just haven't had the time to do so.
