ABOUT ME
An east-coaster by birth but a traveler in spirit, I've yet to find a place to settle in for a spell.
I thoroughly enjoy meeting new folks, whether it's people in my current city or in a new environment — and allowing open discussions to evolve from there.
Originally from Pittsburgh, with an education in southeastern Ohio, I headed a touch south after some serious flirtation with a post-college move to the coast in San Francisco, or to the mountains in Denver, having spent the better part of a decade in Washington, DC — trying my best to pay more attention to the wide avenues, bucolic streets dotted with old-school rowhouses, and neighborhood joints over all the screaming and frenetic energy on Capitol Hill.
I've traveled extensively through the States, by car and campground, with a notebook and books of CDs to round out the road experience. General interests range from design and photography (which occupy a good portion of my energies), to live music, gallery hopping, walking about, beers with friends, good conversation, staying up way too late or waking up way too early every so often, and trying to be open to the experiences and stories of those we come across, but often overlook if we're not careful or proactive about seeking out involvement within a shared community.
