ABOUT ME

I studied philosophy in school. Then I worked at a cafe. Now I sit at a computer for much too long, programming and designing websites.

I am rather American in that I love peanut butter, running, talking too much about things like baking bread or growing tomatoes, serial commas, and reading articles about everything.

I absolutely love to cook for & with other people. The kitchen is my favorite place.

When living in Boston, I hosted a handful of couchsurfers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

let's see. hiking in the white mountains in february. seeing those same white mountains from a farm on a hill in vermont, early in the morning, just the peaks above a sea of fog.

biking through new york, meeting incredibly nice strangers who offered me a place to tent and insisted on giving me a hair cut.
