A glimpse into my life

Dear Readers,

I’m 38 years old and started writing on Medium during May of 2021. I live in Seattle, WA. I have enjoyed sharing over 200 stories about movies, mental health, relationships, history, and other topics.

I am married with a four-year-old son. I hold a BA (Western Washington University) and MFA (Adelphi University), where I focused on poetry, plus a Google Data Analytics Career Certificate. I’m also a lifelong learner, always exploring new subjects on my own.

Some of my passions and hobbies include piano, guitar, movies, fitness, video games, reading, travel, and my family. I am especially passionate about music. I sometimes give piano lessons and recitals, and act as a volunteer group organizer and leader for workshops and performance groups. Here is a recent video of me improvising on the piano.
