People Looking At Things
Sometimes I take* photos of things. People, buildings, plants, traffic, whatever or whomever catches my eye. I don’t take photos because it’s the new, cool thing or because I think […]
35
It’s finally happened. I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time. I’ve felt like it would never get here. Everyone else around me, strangers on the street, my […]
Early Mornings
There are a lot of benefits to living in New York City, but as all New Yorkers know – there are also tons of drawbacks. Every single morning, I am […]

The Tribeca Film Festival is back. Weird movies at ridiculous prices. I’m ok with that. This year, to get people excited because we’re all broke and unemployed, they’re hosting a […]
