One Amazing Thing I've Done
Since 2022, I have been running a regular (currently monthly) disco house dance party in Windsor called Isle of Disco. It's a magical community of dancers and lovers, and a movement of light against the darkness of repression and banality.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am an actual teacher of engineering and computer science topics some of the time, but I can also give pointers on your hackey sack game. I like to learn to use things that make music.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Your choice of a funky drum beat, an energetic dance partner, or an unlimited supply of puns.
My Interests
