I grew up wanting to be a singer.. loved jazz, but my first voice teacher carefully taught me to love classical music and opera, where my talent really was. Though I studied Business in university I sang and studied music right alongside. I studied a couple summers in Austria and then did the competition thing winning the Metropolitan Opera Audtions. I studied and sang with some of the greatest singers and conductors since then. Now in Los Angeles, I do studio work for film and television, teach voice and coordinate a community concert series, am an office IT, and newletter editor in the Los Angeles area. I travel a good deal around the country singing in recital when I can. Right now I am doing whatever I can to help my fiancee who lives in Austin find a job here in L.A. so he can move back and we finally get married.

Wow, great stuff in this thread, people.

I just joined the forums and don't have a VX (yet). Thought I'd say hello anyways since I didn't see anybody else from Michigan. I'm gonna go hunting for one to test drive in the next week or so I'm super busy though, working a full-time job and doing some side work (programming/sysadmin) to build startup capital. (Un)fortunately, my 1993 GMC Jimmy is starting to get in the way of profitable work so it's time for it to go. My wife drives a 1997 Subaru Impreza Outback, which I like but it's too small for my taste.

Hi, my name is Tobert and I'm a ...
Software Infrastructure Development Architect (say that 5 times quickly)
Linux & Unix Administrator
trombone player (http://www.beltlinebigband.com)
aspiring entrepeneur
computer programmer (perl, C, etc.)
car geek (been working on cars since I could walk)

Cheers!

Great thread! I'm a chef / restaurant owner -- a private fine dining club in a 1912 mansion in Shreveport's historic Highland District. Also, husband, father, and co-shuttle driver for soccer, dance, football, lacrosse, gymnastics, etc...

btw, I've noticed quite a few references to HST and other similarly twisted bits...the VX attracts the best of us! We are, after all, trained professionals.
