CURRENT MISSION

teaching, writing, traveling

ABOUT ME

I am a graduate student who enjoys teaching and talking about, well, lots of things, but especially art, literature, philosophy, music, culture, travel. I write poetry and love to travel, as I believe that the best way to feel integrated into the world is to see more of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Classic films, novels (favorite writers are Paul Auster, Herman Hesse, Nabokov, Tom Robbins, Jose Saramago), music includes Jazz, blues, folk, anything with an edge to it, anything that hasn't been produced to within an inch of its life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in interior Alaska for three years as a teenager, and if anything will ever make you feel small, it is the sight and feel of that much space.
