CURRENT MISSION

Just finished up a backpacking trip in Europe! Just chilling back home now, looking to hang out with some rad folks! Also, improving my German.

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from Toronto but study Environmental Design at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.

I love both making and admiring art. I do a lot of oil painting and always carry around my sketchbook just in case. Some of my favourite artists include Cy Twombly, Ai Weiwei, Marina Abramovic, and Janine Antoni.

Most of what I read is either poetry or non-fiction. (I'm mostly interested in reading about food policies/culture and the philosophy of photography.)

I love my beer and can fall asleep practically anywhere. I'm pretty low-maintenance and stereotypically polite.

Teach, Learn, Share

Since I always have drawing supplies with me, I could probably do your portrait and make you look fabulous!

If you're also into poetry I could introduce you to Vancouver's slam scene. It's quite rad here!
