Acoppola

am a lawyer, but I am also a skateboarder, a collector of vintage guitars and modern synthesizers. I love to cook, and no food is too exotic for me. I eat jellyfish when I can. And I've always wanted to try FUGU.

I always wanted to live in New Orleans, so when I was 22, I did it. I got washed out by Hurricane Katrina.

I always wanted to write a novel, so I just sat down and did it. I published under the pen name Cash Dangerfield. I don't care about money, just artistic expression. I am hoping these awards can help get my novel out to more people. I wanted to write something that would make people laugh on every page.

I am looking forward to surf school this summer.
