Bio:
Raised by squirrels in the hills of Virginia, I currently reside in Boston, where I make a living by buying the letter "R" at a cut rate and then selling it in France at a huge mark-up. I am a four-time Legends of Backgammon Champion.
Heavy Rotation:
"Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard/ Are sweeter."
Favorite Flick:
The Empire Strikes Back
Celebrity Crush:
Nicole Kidman, now. Winona Ryder, for many years. Shoplifting I can overlook, Adam Sandler films I can't.
Junk Food of Choice:
Lime Tostito Chips dunked in Roasted Garlic Salsa.
