Hey there. My name is Ray Michael. My friends call me Ray, Ray-Ray, or HoSs (Last name nick name thing...you'll understand.) I started in the online world when I was a freshman in high school and my obsession has grown since then. I taught myself the HTML language and it has definitely helped with my career status although it's not really what I do for a living. Enough about my computer background. Here is the real scoop.
I am a 23 year old resident of Dallas, TX and was moved here from the Southside of Chicago in March of 2001 by my company. I love the weather here but miss the culture of Chitown. Like I always say, "Heat is uncomfortable but the Chicago cold HURTS. You are probably wondering about all of the theatre pictures in the photos sections. Well, I am an actor. One of the biggest fears that people have is being in front of a crowd giving a speech or performance. Well, that is my passion. Whether it be a full production show or a speech at work to a weekly conference call, I LOVE public speaking. I have been in seven previous shows including one college performance. My shows include:
- Romeo and Juliet-Escalus (the prince)
- Elvis Sighting....(Winter One Acts)
- Oklahoma!-Andrew Carnes
- Inherit the Wind-Mr. Meeker
- The Crucible-Thomas Putnam
- Pippin-a player, the head, ensemble
- The Foreigner-KKK member
My job has me traveling quite frequently which is a blast. I'm a training and people development specialist for an occupational medical company. I love partying at every city I go to. I'm a total workaholic but play just as hard. I started this position when I was 21 and believe me, I have loved every minute of it.
Enough about work. Here's the real scoop. I am 6'2 and 190lbs and I LOVE to work out at the gym. I was a swimmer for seven years and yes, I did have to shave the legs and my head, so don't ask. My best stroke was the backstroke which I swam in the Conference meet. I love socializing with people and I'm not too much into confrontations although I have no problem agreeing to disagree. Typical Libra. I am really big into improving myself in any way that I can and am always looking for new ideas to do so. My other love includes following the Chicago Cubs, Chicago Bulls, and Chicago Bears...see a trend there? Well other than that, this is a work in progress so I hope you enjoy. Take care!
