ABOUT ME

I LOVE TO EXPLORE! If its cold and rainy I like to paint and drink Nebbiolo, if its beautiful out I like to tinker with my garden and drink Rosé and read books. I lived in Hangzhou, China, for a period of time, and I am very interested in East Asian cultures. I am also passionate about most booze so lets drink some together and talk about it.

My music taste is expansive, but I can typically find something in common with almost everyone I meet. If you listen to metal or techno you get extra points. I paint abstract paintings that look like something and nothing simultaneously. Love architecture, painting, installation, performance, and all other arts.

I miraculously have internet here in the middle of nowhere, so thats cool.

I ended up on Lummi Island after being fed up with the high stress lifestyle of Boston. I had plans to move to Brooklyn, put a deposit down on an apartment, and then jumped ship to Seattle. Six months later and I packed my bags for Lummi with a new job at the Willows Inn. We just won a James Beard Award. I'm excited for the future and what it holds.
