1997 World Championship statement
"Age, 22. I'm a writer for Extreme magazine. I perform magic and illusions in my spare time. I also play baseball, and attend Stetson University in Deland, Florida, where I'm a Senior majoring in Marketing/Advertising with a minor in Information Systems. I have 3 cats and 10 fish. I enjoy all sports, but just one CCG, and that's Star Wars. I'd like to mention Adam Schoettler and J.T. Shelton, my friends and Star Wars CCG buddies, both of whom are good enough to have qualified for the World Finals. Good luck to everyone in Norfolk."[2]
