CURRENT MISSION

"understand the world"

ABOUT ME

i study philosophy at the University of Richmond
and i like making music, thinking about things,
reading books and people-watching.

i think things become more interesting the more unclear they become. there are many people who i love and who have changed my life in important and positive ways. i'm skeptical of answers and interested in words and time.

"Man is a mystery.
I am occupied with this mystery, because I want to be a man."
- F. Dostoevsky
