Brad bounced around to several Midwest and Northeast states growing up, which partially accounts for his spastic personality, charmingly neurotic demeanor and his cultural promiscuity. To escape small town America and experience the world, Brad fled the sticks of upstate New York and made his way to Washington DC. When he’s not on the 9-5 grind at the American Psychological Association’s division SPSSI, he’s high-kickin, twerkin and dropping it low with his dance team Capital Funk. If you’re looking to spot Brad out on the town – you’ll typically find him at Camelot on Sundays, Stadium on Mondays and dancing for change outside the Verizon center every other night of the week.

Parks and Recreation, Walking Dead, Girls, Army Wives. (one of these is a joke)
What was your favorite cartoon when you were a kid?
I was never a kid. But I remember being obsessed with Xena in the 90’s. Does that count?
What superhero would you be?
Night-Crawler. He can teleport, which would save me the trouble of having to fly coach.
Who’s your greatest influence?
The people who have influenced me the most in my life are my friends. They’ve open my eyes to things I never would’ve seen without them – and they’ve been key players in helping me become the hot fucking mess I am today.

Unreasonable Fear: Being in the Lincoln tunnel when a tidal wave hits NYC.

An open bar.
How would you describe your dream guy?
Outstandingly hilarious. Unknowingly adorable. Inadvertently kind. Hung like a mule.
Define good in bed.

Sally Field. She doesn’t resemble me, but that bitch knows how to commit to a character.

Myself. Closeted Homophobes. Drunk sorority girls in Georgetown. The right.

It’s a toss up – either my dog, or my book of quotes. The quote book can’t keep my junk warm at night, though.

Gross hands and feet. Keep it cute, boys.

Dating an asexual man. Going to a tanning bed. Pretending to be straight.

Mostly boxer briefs, but I’ve bought a couple pairs of briefs recently. They look good but they feel like sterility.
