ABOUT ME

I grew up in Portland, ME. I spent a year in New York City and now reside with my girlfriend and two cats in a small town in Western Massachusetts. There are few things I like more than to be in the woods. Much of my free time is spent recording music at home or reading and listening to records with a glass of scotch. I have only traveled to Eastern Canada and inside the contiguous US and am anxious to travel further abroad.

PHILOSOPHY

Be true, take nothing for granted and most importantly, have fun.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books - Mostly non-fiction about history or natural science in the vein of Edward Abbey, Peter Matthiessen, Colin Tudge, though Haruki Murakami is an all-time favorite.

Movies - a few favorites are 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Good The Bad and The Ugly, Lord of the Rings, The Thin Red Line, The Thing and lots of old cult films.

Music - my preferences are varied but I am particularly fond of classical, UK folk, soundtracks and electronic esp. ambient and house.

Teach, Learn, Share

I might be able to fix your broken stereo. And I'm a pretty good breakfast cook.
