BRIEF HISTORY: I lived in Utah, then I lived in New Jersey for a few years, and now I live in Utah again. I started playing music with That One Band, and then with Plunky.

RANDOM PET PEEVES AND DISLIKES: People who ride their bikes down busy streets, right in the lanes! They have these reflectors on the back as if that's going to carry them the extra step from being a bike to a car. They slow down traffic, and when they do they have this indifferent expression on their faces and it makes me mad. However, I'm sure a significant amount of them are killed every year, so it all evens out.
WHICH MEMBER OF PLUNKY WOULD YOU SAY YOU WOULD KILL IF GIVEN THE CHANCE? Jake because he's had lots and lots of sex.
EQUIPMENT: Ernie Ball Super Slinky strings, Dunlop 1.14 Gator Grip Picks, Cort bass guitar, and a shure mic, for what it's worth.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE SONG TO PLAY? I don't know
FAVORITE QUOTE: A bit of advice from my idol, Conan O'Brien. "If you can laugh at yourself, loud and hard, every time you fall, people will think you’re drunk."
