One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Non-religious, everyone-welcome Shabbat dinners at my home every Friday night that often include jamming, Mafia, or just great conversations
Burning Man.
Performing comedy and music - both of my own creation.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm apparently good at motivating people to live and love life, and to succeed in the freelance world/not get caught up in work. Maybe.

Gotta think about this more.

Oh, I'm great at bringing people together. Dinner parties, sketch comedy groups, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Go the extra step: provide snacks and ideas. Hang out.
