Hi!

This is me in a nutshell -

An expat with a British upbringing living in Brooklyn who likes

writing long sentences and has developed an identity crisis that can

only be resolved by choosing a life of pretending to be other people.

                       

A little more? 

I love words and old fashioned books - you know - the paper and ink kind.

I'm endlessly curious about the human condition and passionate

about telling stories.

Stories are how we learn to be human.

I love comedy, but only the dark kind makes me laugh out loud.

I like ignoring the existence of acronyms.

I have great taste in music, not so great taste in men,

and winter makes me happy.

When not on stage pretending to be other people,

I can be found writing comedies about death,

inappropriate skits, and performing the occasional

standup routine.
