What a doozy of a question. Come to think of it, who is anyone? I used to have a cheesy “It was a dark and stormy night” story here to explore my origins, but I don’t know if that does, or ever did, really explain who I am as a person. Allow me to retry to answer the question this page posits with a bulleted list:
- I’m a man
- He/Him
- I’m a New Yorker
- Former Crotonite
- Former King of Queens
- Current Man of Manhattan
- I’m an editor
- Copy editor
- I stay far away from photo and video editing
- I rarely spell “license” correctly on the first try
- How can such a simple word be so difficult to master?
- I’m a graduate of Emory University
- Creative Writing major, History minor
- Brother – Sigma Phi Epsilon
- One semester spent at Kings College London
- GPA: 3.55
