[Gearjoneser]

I work behind the scenes in children's animation and gaming. It's not the creative end, but the licensing end. Specifically, it's making deals with companies and animation rights holders to license images, clothing, toys, food, apps, ringtones, etc. Also, selling advertising on cartoon/gaming sites.

My playing is in the same vein as Marc Ford, David Grissom, Pete Thorn, Doyle Bramhall, Phil X, Bonamassa, Blues Saraceno etc. Basically, most modern and traditional styles, but rooted in blues. I'm a hybrid picker, and play a lot of slide too.

Career - I've had a variety of Marketing roles throughout my career and am currently pursuing my MBA. Most recently my jobs have been focused on Pricing and Promotions. Everything from strategy and conceptualization to tactictal implementation and results tracking. I do it all!

Types of Music - Metal, lots and lots of Metal. I play and like a variety really. Some nu metal, some old school, lots of thrash. Very little to no hair metal. Also interspersed with a mish mash of hard rock, classic rock, blues rock and country rock.
