My name is Ian Umholtz. I was born in Austin Texas in April of 1990. I am now 6 feet, 3 inches tall and weigh around 270 pounds.
I am usually a pretty happy and easy going guy. I have a deep love of history and literature, as well as baseball, bowling and swimming. Right now I am involved in two different historical reenactment societies, one of them focusing on period correctness and strict adherence to the forms and functions of daily life of the time period that we are enacting. The other is a Battle reenactments group that focuses not so much on correctness, but on having fun and learning new things. Right now I am taking part in a study group, learning obscure, rural German weapons dueling forms.
I have also been a Blacksmith's apprentice for the last 9 months, learning the ancient art of Blacksmithing. It has been one of my passions and will continue to be one for the rest of my life. I am more than happy to answer any questions that any one might have on the subject, for it is fascinating to me and I hope it will be to some of you as well.
I love to read any and all books especially the Constitution of the United States and the Declaration of Independence , as well as write poetry. I have only recently started to enter my works in contests but so far I seem to be doing quite well.
I love music in most of its forms and will listen to most anything once! I am now learning to play guitar and am exited about that.
I enjoy video games, mostly Xbox 360 games
such as Call of duty 4 and the Halo series. but I play a lot of different games as well.
This week I helped out at the PACE Anchorage office. I learned how to image computers, which means use one computer to clone exact replicas. With the help of Jen Alverson, we prepared 75 laptop computers in under three days. I am taking the Final Cut Express class with Mr. Baylinson this year. I look forward to learning the art of video editing so that I can share some of my interests and talents with other students.
