Overview
About Me
I'm big on humanism, custom-tailored relationships, and fountain pens; less big on systematic oppression, fascism, black-and-white thinking, and hornets. I believe you can completely disagree with someone without ever thinking they're foolish, and I think selfies are worth a lot more than people give them credit for.
I'm an introvert, a counselor, and an occasional writer. I love books, beer, board games, video games, home-cooked food, and great conversation.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To get a little idealistic, we build the world we want to see. I want to live in a world where people open their doors to each other and take care of one another, and the best place to start is with myself.

Music, Movies, and Books
This could go on forever, but I'll try to keep it brief.
My favorite books are always cycling, but books I've enjoyed recently include "Saga" by Vaughan and Staples, "The Information" by Gleick, "The New Jim Crow" by Alexander, "The Fifth Season" by Jemisin, "The Anatomy of Fascism" by Paxton, and the "Nexus" trilogy by Naam.
