Who Am I?
I grew up in Vancouver – all those years ago.
What I'm Into
- Hockey has been a lifelong passion: and the Canucks a lifelong frustration
- Playing Texas Hold’em (let’s compare starting ranges!) against drunk tourists
- Silver stacking (and wishing I’d put it into crypto instead)
- Always wanted to be a pizzaoiolo (but would probably hate it)
- Muay thai boxing and padel are two new loves
- Growing herbs on balconies cuz I don’t have a yard
- Creative writing and screenplays
- Website creation (I’ve got Rome and Barcelona sites too)
