Growing up, I spent most of my time in the woods writing and drawing. I lived in Germany as a kid, then Cuba in my teens, and Japan in High School. I can speak decent German, bad Spanish, and a few choice phrases in Japanese.

I like to travel, get in adventures, subvert the law, chop wood, mine coal, and drill asteroids... Otherwise, most of my energy goes towards creative pursuits.

I take photos, doodle, write, and skateboard. And I have a cat.

I'd say what I value most is openness and honesty. Makes life easier.

Attending graduate school, writing for a television show, studying film narratives.

Packing light and traveling smart.

Scratch marks from my cat.

What it means to tell a story, what is a story, why do we tell them, where do they come from?

...going to see a movie at the Drafthouse or playing boardgames with friends.

I don't really think the OkCupid scores are accurate, but I'm willing to play along.

-- You think we'd get along.
-- You are interested in adventure/hiring an experienced drug mule.
-- You know a movie I should see.
