CURRENT MISSION

I want to see more of the world and do exciting things without going bankrupt.

ABOUT ME

I am sometimes kind of shy, but I am interested in people's stories and their ideas and opinions. I recently started an art and literary magazine, so I would be thrilled to meet creative people of all types (poets/writers, illustrators, musicians, filmmakers, photographers, critical thinkers, comedians, etc). I watch a little too much tv, but when I get the opportunity to see new places, I love exploring naturey areas as well as seeing cool spots around a city. Generally I'm pretty independent, but if someone wants to show me around or tell me about cool things to do, I'm open to that!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a bike tour of Vinci, Italy, home of Leonardo da Vinci. It was so beautiful! And I feel like I understood a little better where he found inspiration for the sfumato technique.
