ABOUT ME

I like good food, good coffee, and good beer, and if you're making your way to New York City, I can recommend good places to find all of them.

I am simultaneously extremely frustrated by and very passionate about politics.

PHILOSOPHY

"Talking about economics is a little like pissing on your leg. It may seem hot to you, but it never does to anyone else." ~ Lyndon B. Johnson
