about

me on the slopes of snowmass mountain in aspen.  this is andy's favorite picture of me.  ever.

hi, my name is eli. welcome to my fan club.

most of my life i’ve lived in the midwest: indiana, ohio, and kentucky. despite moving so much as a kid, i tell people that i grew up in noblesville, indiana (about 30 miles north of indianapolis). my family moved there (from milford, oh) just before my 5th grade year and i lived there through the end of high school. after graduation i moved to bloomington, indiana (about 45 miles south of indianapolis) and lived there for 4 years: 2 of which i was in college, and 2 of which i was a dropout. meredith (my gf) graduated the following summer (’05) and we moved to seattle the following january. we’ve lived in seattle for the past 2 years now, and we really enjoy it.

i’m sort of a nerd, and i like to take pictures. i’ve designed and programmed websites (and still do a bit), i’ve been a substitute teacher, an apartment maintenance guy, a pizza delivery boy, a kirby vacuum salesman (for about 5 minutes), and a game tester for Nintendo. currently, i’m traveling the world (New Zealand, Australia, Thailand) after working as a Dining Attendant (dish washer) at McMurdo Station in Antarctica for about 5 months. yeah, that’s right.

you can find me else where on the interwebs on facebook, myspace, twitter, flickr, dopplr, and digg.

at some point in my life i hope to buy some land in the middle of nowhere, build a small shelter, grow some food, and grow old on it. that will be my own personal heaven.
