Original takes, uncomfortable ambivalences, and the experiences of the road less traveled.

I see writing as small defiance against the dogmatic institutions pushing our society into simplistic extremes. The popular narrative may scratch the itch, but does it convey the truth?

The internet thrives on tribalism and easy answers. I’ll do my best to avoid both. If a point has already been made well, I won’t waste our time repeating it. Whether media criticism, investigative reporting, or the oddball story from the margins, I aim to bring a discerning and analytical perspective.

Grateful for your time, and to the writers, travelers, and thinkers whose work continues to inspire mine.
