About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I have lived in San Francisco for the last 15 years but I am from Massachusetts originally. I work from a laptop and cell phone, so I decided to take my show on the road. I subleased my apartment in San Francisco and set off to have some fun. I spent July driving across the US and then August in New England. Now its time to travel again.

PHILOSOPHY

Use it or lose it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was hiking on the middle plateau of the Grand Canyon, probably 1500-2000 feet below the South Rim, when a desert thunderstorm rolled in. It was an amazing sight: dramatic dark clouds and lightning. The best part was we were so far down in the ground that the raindrops would evaporate before they hit us, so while looking up at the storm only a few drops reached our faces.
