About

The more I know, the more I know how little I know. And in a universe with trillions of galaxies, I’m honored to be here with you now. I am a writer. I am in college, studying government and history at Harvard. I am a political pundit. I am a tutor. I am a soccer player, coach, and personal trainer. I am obsessed with geography and history. I am an art snob. I love theoretical physics. I have a vast array of other interests—everything from Rocket League to mental health to obscure topics like Maglev trains & nuclear fusion energy. And I split my time on Earth between my home in Cambridge on Harvard campus and my hometown: Dallas, Texas.

Alas, there are very few things I’m sure of in life. I don’t know why we’re here or why I maintain a solipsistic fixation on my arbitrarily constructed reality. I certainly don’t know what I want to “do”—whether I end up as an author, professor, political scientist, politician, full-time film and music critic, etc. What I do know: I love the arts. It wasn’t until my life reached its lows that I saw how crucial they are to me, but now I know. Anyway, I cover both contemporary works and classics. I try to write brief reviews (ranging from one giant paragraph to two or three small ones), so you’ll know that I’m reviewing something special when you see a long post. Also, my music posts can cover anything from albums to songs. Hope that this site provides a nice platform for us to share our interests, ideas, and experiences!
