About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to unite universality w/ specifics

ABOUT ME

i like consonance and assonance b/c it makes me feel the world's a bit more fluid than our eyes allow.
my hometown was packed up when i was 2 and sent overseas, so i've been searching for it ever since.

PHILOSOPHY

paradox informs consciousness.
entropy is the mother of beauty.
agency is not a choice you can make.

Interests

linguistics, poetry, good wine, trivial conversations warping into profound ones, learning my pitfalls in the kitchen, walled villages.

  • poetry
  • beauty
  • wine
