I am Wine Guy. The name Wine Guy comes from one of my vocations as a Sommelier. Sometimes, people in restaurants don't know the correct term, so they ask for 'the wine guy'. I like it, it's less stuffy. I like wine too, which helps. I am currently about halfway through the process of becoming a Master Sommelier.

I am a conservatory educated musician. While my main study was in orchestral percussion and timpani, I also studied voice with a particular concentration in early and baroque music.

I am a lifelong Episcopalian. Being an active member of the church, and a professional singer have gone together well. I have had rare opportunities both as a musician and as a churchman because of the confluence of these two parts of my life.

Being an Episcopalian, as well as an Anglophile has led me to join the WikiProject on Anglicanism and the Anglican Communion. There is a vast amount of work to be done in this area, but I look forward to making a contribution to the cause.

Currently I reside part-time in Chicago, and the rest of the time in Kentucky (south of Louisville.) I grew up near Chicago, and have lived in New York City, and the West Country of England (in Wells, Somerset to be exact.)

RC patrol
I've started doing some RC patrol using VoA's RC patrol script. I must be doing something right, because one of the vandals decided to vandalize my user page after I reverted his rather uninspired image editing on John Seigenthaler, Sr.'s page. While this is the first time my page has been a victim, I'm sure it won't be the last. If any potential vandals happen to read this before working on my page, I only ask one thing: Please Be Creative.
