Work Experience
Writer
2023 - Current
After sporadically writing throughout my life, including an auto-biography, I've decided to try writing full time and see if it sticks. I'll start on Medium and expand from there. Subject matter will be things I'm learning in life about being a better human and whatever I'm interested in right now. Broadly speaking that is Psychedelics, IFS therapy, and AI. I'm nervous. I think that's a good sign.
