ABOUT ME

I am an easy going Canadian back home in Toronto. I've done a bunch of travelling over the last couple of years and would love to give back through CS. I like good food, good beer, good music and awesome stories and if you do too im sure we'll get along well.

Teach, Learn, Share

"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery — celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from — it’s where you take them to.”

-Jim Jarmusch
