About Me
I grew up in rural northeast Ohio but I've wanted to live in Pittsburgh for as long as I can remember. My love for the city has only grown since coming to Carnegie Mellon, where I've studied Information Systems, Computer Science, and Game Design.
​
My creative interests expand erratically but a desire to create nonderivative, meaningful experiences with an identifiable aesthetic bind them all. Above all else, I love learning new things and refining my skills.
​
If I'm not trying to hack a new project together, you're likely to find me playing board games with friends or listening to a new album.
Hobbies
Poetry
I've taken multiple poetry classes at CMU and continue to read and write in my spare time. I love concrete, visual, digital, and other forms of experimental poetry.
Music
I'm the drummer in an indie punk band named Heavy Lobster that has recorded and released one EP and performed several live shows in Pittsburgh, including one that was broadcasted from WRCT 88.3FM to all of of the city.
​
I have played in a few other bands while at CMU, as well, and I'm an avid supporter of Pittsburgh's local music scene.
Bouldering
I climb regularly at Iron City Boulders in Lawrenceville.
