About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To engage myself with as much as I can while I'm young enough to do it and old enough to appreciate it.

ABOUT ME

I have start by saying I love music! I've been playing classical, jazz, and klezmer piano for as long as I can remember and I love singing Scottish, middle eastern, and latin tunes. I play all types of games, from chess to super smash bros, and I collect riddles, jokes, and puzzles. I listen to a ton of audiobooks, and I write about technology and society.

PHILOSOPHY

We make our own purpose in life. As of now, mine is to spread joy and music. Tolerance and open-mindedness are paramount.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once crashed an Indian wedding in Varanasi. It was an arranged marriage, and I captured on camera the moment when the groom first saw his bride. What an expression!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really good at explaining hard-to-grasp scientific concepts. If you've ever been curious about those types of things, host me! I'm interested in learning poetry, esoteric forms of dance, and strange instruments. Also, I can share with you a secret way of tying your shoes that will save hours over the course of your life!

What I Can Share with Hosts

All the love in my heart. And I'll come bearing chocolates!
