About Me

About Me: Grew up in San Jose and moved to Santa Cruz in December '95. By day I work at an essential oil company in the Sash Mill, and in my other life I write. I also like bicycling, hiking, live music, am single, and greatly enjoy living between the ocean and the redwoods even if it means putting up with its problems.
My Real Name: Nick Kirkendall
My Neighborhood: Beach Hill
My Employment: Elizabeth Van Buren, Inc.
