About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working on being a rock star. I'm stuck in NYC for a bit longer but then, who knows. There is a lot of the world I have yet to see.

ABOUT ME

I make reaaaaly good double chocolate espresso cookies. I can't cook, but I can make dessert... funny how that works. I love crazy cartoons like Aqua Teen, Invader Zim, and Home Movies. I think wacky irrelevance is the greatest thing ever. I'd do anything for someone I love. I was probably the only Oberlin graduate to wear an Oberlin branded hoodie... in Williamsburg.

I have two cats. Yes, two. Long story. They are adorable and force me to keep my apartment baby proof. I suppose that's not a terrible thing, right?

Also, I don't eat meat anymore... or I'm trying not to. It's still somewhat new to me so if you have pointers... gimmie!

PHILOSOPHY
