(shown here in center) Hailing from Rochester, NY, at 5'8'' and 155 lbs., the once dubbed "Hurricane Thurley" now resides in Charlotte, North Carolina, to get his M.A. in Engish Literature.  An alum from High Point University and the biggest 311 fan you've ever met is now getting to write about the local music in Charlotte.  Anyone that has ever had a car ride with this man knows that this is the right job for this singing maniac.  Either he's reading about Shakespeare, checking 311's tweets, rocking out in his room, or researching new bands that he'll inevitably talk about constantly for a couple of weeks. 

He currently has a paper in the process of being published on his favorite author, Anthony Burgess, and intends on writing and speaking about him much more in the future as well.
