I'm a technologist living in Brooklyn, New York. I enjoy reading, primarily philosophy and philosophical fiction.

I'm a very low-key traveler who enjoys visiting a place to experience living there more than primarily visiting tourist attractions. I like forming strong connections with people, which is why I have traveled to the same cities over and over again – these days I prefer familiarity to novelty, although I do like seeing new places now and then.
