I'm a bit of a nomad. Grew up in Akron, Ohio, and have lived in Los Angeles since 2012. I am currently on a 48-state roadtrip. Trying to have an awesome time and meet great people!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Music – all kinds. Seems to change all the time, but I generally like indie rock / pop. My favorite band is probably Beach House. Favorite album is probably Bon Iver - Bon Iver.

Films – again, mostly indie. My favorite movie is 'The Fountain'.

Books – I read a lot, but some favorites include Ender's Game, Disturbances in the Field, and A Confederacy of Dunces.
