Elsewhere
I grew up performing mimicry. I play piano. I still make odd internet experiments — one of them is Hello From the Other Side, an inquiry into carrying a person's way of remembering, speaking, and relating forward.
Work for a good cause
If you like my work, you can donate to help fund cancer treatment for kids.
Need something interesting built? I'm happy to build it for free. Instead of paying me, donate there. More about this.
