I was born and raised in Chicago, IL and attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where I honed my FPS skills. Since then I have acquired a wife, two kids, an MBA, and relocated to suburban Atlanta, GA.
I realized my love for video games the second my hands touched an NES controller circa 1989 and I have loved comic books for as long as I can remember. I've expanded my level of geekdom to books, TV, movies, and going to as many conventions as I can. I even started to a podcast (ETMF Podcast) to discuss all the things that I enjoy today.

Dragon Con 2014: Panels, Panels, Panels
I probably spent the majority of my time at Dragon Con going to the ridiculous number of panels that they offered. My ultimate goal was to see as much as possible so I marked off which panels I was interested in on the Dragon Con app (regardless of time and location) in advance. If there… Continue reading Dragon Con 2014: Panels, Panels, Panels
