I've been playing and DMing D&D for a over 10 years. I first started with 3rd edition, then jumped back to 2nd and ran away from the THACO system like a bat out of hell. I am very fond of what Pathfinder did to 3.5, but find the simplicity of 5e to be a great benefit. I used to run a HUGE D&D meetup in northern California, then moved down to LA and DMed for Satine at Meltdown Comics until I formed a local group (LA traffic was not fun). Now I am on the east coast and pursuing a more stable and lucrative carrier, but I still like to play around with my background in performance art through role-play.
