CURRENT MISSION

In the past few months ive done a grape harvest and an olive harvest so I guess my current mission is to destroy all small circular puple things that hang on plants.

ABOUT ME

Im back in NYC after two years on the road. I'm working as a research associate at NYU Medical Center. I'm applying to grad programs now. Trying to figure out how to adjust to a shirt and tie 9-5 after vagabonding.
