About Me

Hello, I'm Gabe. I am a writer and aspiring stand-up comedian. I live in San Francisco's Mission District, and work in a cafe. I am, in many respects, a geek. I used to do a lot of theatre, and am fairly good with a deck of cards. I've traveled to a number of interesting places. Met a ton of interesting people. Done a few interesting things. I'm hoping to continue this trend.
