ABOUT ME

When I was 8 my piano teacher told me she was going to have to stick me to the piano bench with a piece of gum because I couldn't sit still for our half hour lesson. I haven't been able to sit still since.

Over the past year, since graduating from university, I have worked at a summer camp on the southern coast of spain, worked various jobs in tel aviv, (fish restaurant, cell phone store, sushi chef, online casino, research institute), and traveled in spain, portugal, morocco, france, israel, india, egypt, and jordan.

Now I live in a glorious 3 br apt in the heart of the East Village in New York and work at a small marketing company.

PHILOSOPHY

You only waste time by sleeping.
