About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding more kindness in the world

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty intense but tell pretty great long winded stories. I'm sarcastic but with the caveat that I'm just trying to hide the heart on my sleeve.

I think that if you can't laugh at yourself, then there is something very wrong. Hence, I think my life is pretty hilarious and love to tell people the crazy things that my friends and I get up to.

I like meet new people, listen to crazy stories and generally see what is out there.

PHILOSOPHY

I think if people realized more that everyone experiences the same loves and losses in their own personal life, they would feel less alone in the world.

Interests

I love traveling, getting lost in random places, walking, rowing, playing and listening to music, reading, writing, daydreaming, unsustainable driving, thinking, doing math, listening to other people's stories

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think one of the coolest things that happened to me was at home. My friend and I got into a taxi just totally wasted from a night of partying and I started to chat the taxi driver up (I do this alot). It turned out that he just had a baby and you could see how proud of his wife and his new son he was. He got out his phone and showed us pictures of his baby and just beamed.

I think for me, it was so special that he shared something so personal to a couple of drunk strangers and let us in to his bit of happiness.
