- About Me And My Work
- I live and work in Houston, TX. I am a full time corporate executive, and part time entrepreneur. I like exploring new places, getting exposure to different aspects of the world and seeing how each of us views it a little differently, based on our own unique experiences. I am on this site as an appreciator of art - and a student of the world, rather than artist.
- Artistic Experiences I Have Had On My Travels
- I recently took a trip to Italy, and was amazed at all the art, architecture, and craftsmanship that I saw there.
- Places I Would Like To Visit
- If it were possible, I would like to see it all.
- Art Forms And Cultures I Would Like To Engage With
- I see interaction on this site as a journey rather than an end result, so I have no preference as to whom I would like to meet along the way.
