About

Adam finds it difficult to talk about himself – so he wrote this “about page” in the third person. Adam thinks it would be a hoot to spend a day referring to himself in the third person when conversing with others.

Say hi to Adam, a self-professed geek residing in Vancouver, WA Oregon. Born and raised in California; Adam moved to the Pacific Northwest in 2005 as a matter of circumstance more than choice. It took Adam some time to transition from sunny California to the rainy Pacific Northwest. Spending much of his first few months here cursing the sky and debating whether or not he should be building an ark.

Adam eventually stopped cursing the sky and found that in exchange for the rain the Pacific Northwest offered some really nice summers, and it’s much, much greener than the desert of Lancaster, CA.

Adam’s interests are in all things technology, generally geekery, tinkering, electronics, making things, videography/editing, movies and planning world domination. Some of these interests manifest themselves as posts on awaitinginspiration.com. Adam is currently employed as a network administrator.

The thoughts and opinions (excluding comments made by third parties) expressed on awaitinginspiration.com are those of Adam and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of Adam’s friends, family, employer(s), or affiliates.
