| Location | Brooklyn (Bushwick, where dreams are made and magic happens), New York, United States |
| Introduction | I work at an art museum and spend a lot of time thinking about design and typography. I love garage rock, lo-fi sounds and melodic distortion. I am also an Inuit (in spirit) living and loving my pioneer town in the most magical place of all (the center of the universe) New York City; I am a true bohemian in mind, body and spirit. Read it and see it. I invite you to take a bite of my apple. |
