About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Host yer ass! Drink some beers!

ABOUT ME

I am a recent college graduate interested in film and video production. I love technology, science and especially nature. In fact I hope to be a nature photographer/documentary filmmaker someday in the not-too-distant future.
I enjoy riding and building bicycles, hiking, camping, dancing, and crazy adventures (both urban and rural)

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in community, experiencing life to the fullest, friendship, love, the power of music and conversation.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Many different kinds, including folk, classic rock, bluegrass, tribal, psychedelic rock, electronic, and pop.

To flesh this out a bit, I'll drop some names. Fleet Foxes, El Guincho, Animal Collective, Panda Bear, CCR, The Beatles, Brightblack Morning Light, Bob Dylan, The Decemberists, Led Zeppelin, Andrew Bird, Tame Impala, Belle and Sebastian, Social Studies, Pretty Lights, Daft Punk, Radiohead... and I'm tired of this list already, so you get the idea.

Movies: Animated films, pretty much anything by Miyazaki or Studio Ghibli (Spirite Away, Howl's Moving Castle etc.) Wes Anderson films, who doesn't? I'm a sucker for sci-fi and fantasy (Star Wars and Lord of the Rings) And of course Jean-Luc Godard.

Books: I read too slow and rarely slow down long enough to read as often as I would like. Don't get me wrong, I love lit people, just don't expect me to understand all your references.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tacheles in Berlin. Ruin pubs in Budapest. Overtoom 301 in Amsterdam. Worked on a farm with Loretta Lynn's daughter. Met protest organizers in Syntagma Square and took part in a riot in Athens, Greece.
