Hello, GB community!  One year after joining, it feels good to ditch the default Master Chief icons and get more involved in all the great discussions here. 
  
I am a sometime writer for Canadian gaming blog, NextGen Player (www.nextgenplayer.com).  Having toiled in web development and tech administration for most of my adult life, I am hanging up my work boots for a year to pursue an education in video game design. 
 
My passion for games doesn't leave a lot of time for other hobbies but i do enjoy the occasional fantasy or classic novel.  I also enjoy bad movies.  And in a past life, I was a breaks/house DJ and a budding snowboarding addict.
