I am an avid rock climber,  coffee addict, (vegan) foodie, movie lover, and gaming enthusiast. 

I believe that a playful approach to life is morally, prudentially, and epistemically virtuous. I try to exemplify it in how I do philosophy. (I find Zhuangzi and Maria Lugones's "Playfulness, "World"-Traveling, and Loving Perception" to be especially insightful texts on the value of playfulness.)

I'm endlessly fascinated and motivated by the challenge to make complete sense of things.
