Being compulsive has its perks. This quirkiness helps me balance all my passions in life. And I’m not just talking about editing meticulously and writing copy that engages and entertains.

I also find time to play practical jokes on my friends, field baseballs at second base, sate curiosity with con-ed classes, chef up the universe’s best chocolate chip cookies, practice pickleball dinks and drops, frequent some of Toronto’s greasiest diners, and shoot a pretty mean game of stick.
