E.D. Armstrong

I am 43 years old, and in 2013 I celebrated 18 years of being married to the most beautiful woman in the world. We have three children ages 17, 13, and 4. With my wife's support and encouragement I was able to return to school at the age of 32, and while cleaning office buildings at night I attended college during the day. I currently work as a Behavioral Therapist with children, adolescents, and adults.

I grew up the youngest of eight children being raised by my mother (divorced) working hard to take care of her children on her own. I got into fights a lot in school (I had a lot of anger issues) and as a result I nearly got held back a few times due to low scores and behavior. A number of teachers saw the potential I had and recommended me for advanced classes (I had no clue why!), but ironically I eventually ended up succeeding in those courses. During that time, I became friends with the new kid in school who, fate would have it, was the son of a preacher and soon became one of my best friends. Upon joining the church I became active working in the ministry as a youth, and well into my adult years, when I became a licensed minister. I devoted much of my time to community outreach, and youth mentoring programs. It was during this time that I met my future wife, Sandra. She saw my dedication to helping troubled youth and suggested that I go back to school and earn a degree that would fulfill my passion.

Now-a-days, I enjoy writing, watching movies/TV shows with my kids, as well as playing games with my family (both video, as well as board games). My family, and I enjoy vacation trips to the Caribbean, which is my wife's birthplace, (Fajardo, Puerto Rico). Our ultimate trip would be to travel the United States in our very own custom RV! My favorite TV shows are Supernatural, Smallville, Burn Notice, The Closer, Justified, Warehouse 13, Psych, and Eureka, just to name a few. When watching with the kids, we are into Disney's Phineas and Ferb, The Avengers, Good Luck Charlie, and The Suite Life On Deck. I have a wide assortment of musical tastes ranging from my love for original hip hop music, (Public Enemy, Run DMC, and Eric B. & Rakim), to also Gospel, which I happen to love, as well as contemporary Christian music. I furthermore confess that I enjoy listening to country music, as well as old school R&B, (Otis Redding, Barry White, etc).

I love both watching and creating anime with my son, (an aspiring artist), an
