I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Striking a balance. Teased into occasional moments of joy by intimate gatherings in the city where people make things out of words and images and sound. Endeavoring to represent complicated things. Alternately hopeful and overwhelmed, but that is, I think, as it should be.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who make things with lines, type, fields, movement or sound. People aware of their surroundings.
