About Me

• Passionate leftist scum
• Chaotic neutral procrastinator
• Soft-hearted scallywag
• Proudly lazy forest creature
• Full-time slow traveler

I like passionate people, intentionality, old-growth ecosystems, Mexican liquor, Japanese food, boxy cars, self-sufficiency, nerdy wine, satisfying spoonerisms, crispy air, ripe avocados, unrushed interactions, fried chicken, and feather pillows.

I spend a lot of time cooking, fixing, making, and scheming. I love company in all these things. ☺️

To meet you, see the world through new eyes, and create systems of mutual aid, support, and exchange that don't rely on capital. I've met many of my closest friends on CS, and know I'll meet many more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have shared street food with instant friends, just add Jalisco's pouring rain. I have slept under the stars through the Pacific Northwest's breathtaking summers, wondering whether the vastness of the universe makes us insignificant or extraordinary. I have kissed salty lips on powdered sugar beaches.
