I grew up in Princeton, New Jersey, and eventually found my way to Los Angeles, via Bloomington (Indiana), Toronto, Ithaca, and New York City (where I met my partner in crime, Joanie Ellen). Our two boys are Angelinos by birth, but we all lived in Sheffield (UK) during a Fulbright year, and since 2019 have been in and around Toronto.
Outside of philosophy and family life, I love bikes--bike racing, bike commuting, bike futzing. Early jobs included being a bike mechanic (where I held the title Lanterne Rouge for slowest flat-tire changes in the shop) and a bike messenger in NYC (when we were fighting cutting-edge technology, the fax machine, for our livelihoods). Check out a slice of my lovely bike/train commute in the videos, above.
I also love music--especially jazz and oddball experimentation from the 60s and 70s, but also punk/pop/rock/rap/etc.--and coffee, a habit that has our kitchen looking like an amateur chemistry lab.

Here is Boise, Idaho (where my sister lives), showing off for the camera on a recent ride up Bogus Basin Road:
