Interests
I'm a creative child into: social networking, social marketing, social network marketing, pianos (I have six, at last count, 50% of which are of the grand variety, scattered between the 617-Boston, 212-NYC and 310-LA area codes), piano playing, music making in general, music in general, filmmaking (especially documentary), publishing, and - oh yeah, and I just started a new clothing line since Leisure Suits are a passion (look out, P.Diddy!).
