Background

For the sake of not sounding too cliche in my bio, I'll refrain from writing about myself here. Instead, I'll write about what you think and/or already know about me. I am awesome. That seems to be the general consensus out there and I'm not going to disagree with you. You win. I would like to point out that I'm actually one part awesome and two parts amazing though. Really. It has something to do with me born in Pittsburgh, PA I think. Seriously, how many Asians do you know were born in Pittsburgh? Especially from immigrant parents from Vietnam where there's no such thing as cold weather.

Someone once asked me "What the dealio?" I answered back with "You know what the dealio is. Don't get at me and pretend that you don't know what it is. That's what the dealio is, Son!" I hate hypothetical questions.

Zoolander has got to be the greatest movie of all time. There's a perfect balance of humor, romance, action, drama, gasoline fight accidents, coal mining scenes, Finnish dwarves, orange mocha frappaccinos, Malaysian Prime Ministers, dogs in capes, and something we barely get enough of in other movies...Mermans. "Listen to your friend Billy Zane, he's a cool dude!"

One last thing about me that you need to know in order for us to get along: I love cheese, mayo, various meats, and my girlfriend. Not in that order of course.

Things Marketing People Love



Marketing people are a different breed and I'm happy to be labeled as one because the more that I read this new blog, the more I point and laugh at myself. We're definitely cool people, but you have to question some of the things we like.

Beautiful art inspired by your genetic makeup

Displaying DNA is no longer an art form perfected by Monica Lewinsky. With DNA 11, you can have your DNA displayed on your walls or even on your desk



These DNA portraits come in various colors and make great gifts to that one person in your life that has everything already. You'll have to sneak in a swab of their cheek cells while they're sleeping if you want to surprise them with one of these portraits. Prices… Continue
