In My Own Words
Southern California native. Perennial sand between the toes. Still chewing on that bite out of the Big Apple. Master's in International Relations from NYU. I enjoy telling stories that distill the human experience. And, occasionally, making people laugh. Family guy. Shout out to the wife and the dog! Se habla español.
