Pronouns: He/him/his

Ahoy :-] I’m originally from Baltimore, studied geology in college, and worked in music for a bit after school in LA. I love everything music (playing, singing, writing, listening, going to gigs… lmk if you want to play some music together!), running, backpacking, camping, hackysacking, doing crosswords with friends, occasional bread-baking, and I might try to get to the beach to do some surfing if time allows. Absolutely 11/10 stoked to meet and hang out with you all!
