About Me
ABOUT ME
Born and raised in a small town in Ontario, Canada, (population: 900), then I moved to Toronto for film school. After working in the film industry for a few years in visual effects, I decided to explore new opportunities as an English teacher in Taiwan, where I currently live.
PHILOSOPHY
"Will today be included in your memoirs?" What did I learn, accomplish, or do today to make today count?
Interests
I'm an avid Dungeons & Dragons player (or rather, DM), and an amateur leathercrafter. I also love photography and astronomy, and pairing them (astrophotography!)

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies:
Shaun of the Dead, Amelie, Clue, Airplane!, Hot Fuzz
Television:
House of Cards, Westworld, The Good Place, Brooklyn 99, The Expanse
Music:
Eclectic, and usually on a song-by-song basis. I could hate everything an artist does, except for one song. Also enjoy electro swing.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Got a massage from two very friendly but also very large Burmese Pythons in Cebu, Philippines. My ophidiophobia was gone after that!
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to introduce people to the wonderful world of Geocaching - it's like a global treasure hunt, and very rewarding!
What I Can Share with Hosts
