On his Ipod: Took it into space with a combination of lifetime favorites (James Taylor and Pink Floyd)
and Austin artists (Fastball is his favorite)

On his reading list: Doesn’t read novels. Reads mostly for research – magazines and data from the
web. Last books he read were children’s books written by scientist Steven Hawking and his wife Lucy,
George’s Secret Key to the Universe and one as yet unpublished.

Typical day: Harried…get up early and work late.
Ecclectic mix of emails, phone calls, design or writing,
creating Powerpoint Presentations, stories, game features
or business plans. A slave to his outlook calendar,
when he takes a break he plays with his dogs.

Favorite spare time pastime: Foodie. Favorite restaurants
Uchi, Hudson’s on the Bend, Jeffrey’s, The Emerald.

Why Austin: “Austin is a city where people and corporations
feel a sense of ownership and have a desire to
give back to the city. For me it is the perfect combination
of a hi-tech art city. This town is very special and I
like to think of myself as the #1 Austin evangelist.”

Something people would be surprised to know
about you: That Kelly has been in my life for 9 years and
her daughter Brennan is my best adventure buddy. I am
very happily involved in a long-term relationship.
