Real Name: Mark Riggs

Location: Westville, Nova Scotia

Introduction
Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, I was primarily raised & currently reside in Westville, NS.

For the majority of my life I have been around computers & video games, having started my gaming experience with the Atari 2600 gaming system and my computer experience working on a Tandy 1000 HX when I was a kid, playing games such as Pitfall!, E.T., Pac-Man, Police Quest, Space Quest and Tetris. As the years passed I moved first into the NES, then to the Super Nintendo, before primarily moving into the world of computers with my first Windows-based system - a generic Pentium 75MHz system - when I was in my teens.

For well over 10 years now I have been working in the industry of Web Development and Graphic Design, with the vast majority of my skill & experience being the result of being self-taught, along with a couple of diplomas from two separate colleges (EBCI College of Applied Art & Technology - for "Multimedia Design, and CompuCollege for Internet Programming).

All things considered, I would class myself as a Geek, an Intellectual and a bit of a Philosopher.
