About Me

I'm working as an editor in Montréal and also learning to code. My current aspirations are to land a job as a junior developer and adopt a quiet but loyal dog.

I enjoy improving my French, reading good books, and listening to great music. I go ice-skating during the winter (it's so easy in Montreal), play tennis during the summer, and I live with the girl you can see in some of my photos—her name is Riteba. I love Montreal for its bilingualism, its bagels, and its possessing a community that feels intent on pursuing meaningful existences.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can chat philosophy and theology (I've studied both), and I've spent a lot of time practising guitar, though I haven't had much time for it recently.

If you can make me better at chess, I'll be very grateful—I understand basic tactics but for now that's about it.
