I am a software engineer for a large worldwide bank. I spend most of my days writing code for all our back end processing and web services. Sounds dull, but I actually really like it, and I have loads of friends at the company who i enjoy working with.

In spare time I run haunted house records. I write/record lots of music, and now I also produce sample collections.

My bike is a 1999 Bianchi Giro. The wheels are Mavic Aksium Race. The components are a 105/Ultegra mix, STI. The rest is a mix of Specialized and 3TTT.

I love my bike. And my job too. I think if I ever got a real job, I'd keep this job for a few hours on the weekend just to give myself a reason to ride my bike around and dodge traffic.

hardcore...how many times have you gotten hit?

I've inherited my parents gas station in the middle of nowhere off of interstate 5 in California. I'm currently running the business.

I used to sell Garlic seasonings at home and garden shows and fairs.

before that I was a Drain cleaner for a plumbing company.

before that I was a Carnie (not joking)

I've also been an under the table Janitor for a mental health clinic.

lets see... I also was a cable installer for Comcast

and a Coffee shop Barista

I did handy man work at a shitty appartment complex for about 2 months once until the owner kept trying to pay me in drugs and I wanted cash.
