ABOUT ME

I'm a very friendly guy. Music and art are both extremely important to me. I love to play guitar, and have been playing for over a decade now. I like to see the world as more good than bad, with some confused souls. life is short, you live only once, and there's no time to get caught up in the things that aren't important.

I love to spend time with friends, old and new, eat and drink and share the human experience. I believe in a living a simple life, and that wealth is the people who are around us, not number in your bank account. I enjoy good philosophical conversations, but also like to get out and see things. I love to explore the nightlife wherever I am, although I have been known to get a little carried away at times.

I am extremely respectful of people and their beliefs, whatever they may be. I try and practice compassion towards others, and believe it is better to extend trust and occasionally get taken advantage of, than to live a closed, cautious and worried life.

兴趣

Music first and foremost. Guitar has been a major part of my life consistently for years and years. I love to build things as well. I own very little besides guitars and power tools. I am good with my hands, predisposed to anything that takes attention to detail and a delicate touch. I love architecture and aspire to someday design and build my home. I paint and draw as well. -- http://be.net/maiercreations -- if you'd like to see a small sample of my work.

I love to brew beer, and of course drink it. I love the craft beer culture springing up all over the united states, and the rich culture of wine and beer in Europe. I believe that almost everything is better when it's local; happens on a small scale with care and love invested in it.

I have been working in specialty coffee most recently, and have grown quite fond of a well pulled shot of espresso, or a well poured latte. I love coffee, tea, whiskey, wine, beer and so on. The history fascinates me. I believe our vices make us human, and we should always remember to enjoy our lives. Working in coffee has been quite rewarding, there's something very special about making people's mornings a little better.
