CURRENT MISSION

Putting the fun in funds by day. Boozing by night. Traveling when I can. Trying to understand the world as it rushes by me.

ABOUT ME

Recent grad, city slicker and whiskey enthusiast trying to hack it as a "young professional" or whatever people call it these days. Previously spent some time in DC, traveled through Europe and Asia as a nomad for a few months and eventually returned to New York. (what can I say, I like tall buildings and pizza) Currently going to Miami for a short while.

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever floats your boat.
