About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit and play music

ABOUT ME

I play many instruments including the guitar, ukelele, and the jarana, a mexican 8-string guitar, and hand drums. My primary instruments are the violin and singing, which I have classical training in. I also like to talk about politics. I speak English and Spanish and just a hint of Punjabi. My ethnicity is Indian (not Native American, but from India). I like punk music but also a huge range of others including opera/classical and folk musics. I also like reading and discussing.

Interests

Listening to/playing music is a huge one, good, cheap food, good reads, including fantasy and philosophical novels. I like both cats and dogs. I like taking walks in nature. Not one for too-intense hikes.
