I currently live in Baltimore, Maryland, though I've spent a good chunk of my life in Minneapolis MN, Madison WI, Portland OR, and Vancouver BC (Canada). I like cities and all the complexity and weirdness that comes with them.
Things I like to do include, but are not limited to, hanging out with my partner, throwing frisbees, tinkering, seeing friends, drawing stuff, thinking, making silly apps, cooking food, playing board games, skateboarding, watching spooky movies, watching regular movies, watching my cats, and climbing.
