Life

Born: 1980

Biography

He was born in the United States of America. He served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from December of 1999 to December of 2001. Since 1999, he has had a high interest in things musical, although he did not compose his own music until 2005. His first contribution on CPDL.org (also his first composition) was not even a choral piece, an oversight, due to his excitement about finding such a website, although it remains in the archives without an article to this day (Aftermath.pdf and Aftermath.mid).

Hobbies

Writing fiction (novels, interactive fiction, etc.), writing poetry, engraving sheet music (mostly old hymns and personal works), writing novels and poetry, playing music (on the piano, pennywhistle, low whistle, concert flute, Irish flute, and folk-style piccolo), composing music, programming (mostly Python, but also Java, a little C++, and more), singing, reading, studying foreign languages, playing text adventures (people still make them, believe it or not), listening to music (Celtic, Asian, choral, most instrumental music, and so forth), coming up with new ideas, promoting public domain, open-source, and otherwise good free things, reinventing things in less convoluted ways—in his opinion (note that he prefers complex things at times, but not convoluted: the difference being in the usefulness of the details)—and so forth.
