I am a writer by occupation. The articles I write reflect my areas of interest, knowledge, and experience; thus, I will probably never write about gardening or professional sports.
I am interested in media, and am most passionate about reading, writing, film--generally, narratives and storytelling. Technology interests and bemuses me. So do flexitarianism and environmentalism. I love to cook and eat.
