ABOUT ME

quiet but friendly and good at making people laugh. during the day i work for a federal initiative to make technology as accessible as possible. i always want to explore more and am happiest when i have a view of the sky in front of me.

Música, películas y libros

music: wfmu is the best, otherwise whatever live music i can find. i'm lucky to be in dc where there is so much affordable, world-class music of all kinds, from library of congress concerts to house shows.

movies: too many to list, though i am a big fan of indie cinema in general and love attending the national gallery screenings and the various outdoor summer screen events here.

books: lots. a few favorite authors lately are george saunders, marilynne robinson, mark kurlansky, and naomi klein.
