About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience life to the fullest, to enrich my mind, and meet great people along the way with whom to share the experience...and some whiskey.

ABOUT ME

I'm a New York City expat living in Dublin for the past 5 years. Came here to expand my business--I'm a band manager and I run a digital music app . I'm very outgoing, laid-back, and readily helpful. I've been lucky enough to travel around, and thanks to the highs and lows I have cultivated a taste for the spontaneous. I'm equally happy on a crazy adventure as I am sitting at home debating Kant or going for a pint and a bop with friends. I've been unusually fortunate to experience some amazing things in my life, and my hope is that through surfing I can connect with people who are questing for the same.

PHILOSOPHY

Appreciate the life you're granted. Gather as much knowledge as you can, learn to love and respect other people, know that you are beautiful, read Russian lit, always foster your inner child, know Star Wars like the back of your hand, sustain a minute-long chataranga, study Bach, drink good alcohol, step outside your comfort zone, and do some stupid things. You'll have lived to the fullest.
