About Me

I'm an American writer and comedian presently living in Belgrade, Serbia.

I have an insatiably creative spirit with a healthy dose of adventure, which extends not just to travel but to relationships, work, where I'm going to buy my next cup of coffee, etc.

I'm originally from the Bay Area, I graduated from UC Berkeley, lived in SF for 7 years, Chicago for 4, New York for 3, Europe (mainly Berlin and Lisbon) for 3, as well as Colombia, Mexico, Philadelphia, Belgrade, etc.

I love beer, laughing, and loving.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I first went to Vieques and saw the beach at Novio. I had just been laid off from a corporate job, and realize I never wanted to be stuck in a cubicle again. I haven't remained faithful to that vow, but I'm trying.
