Vermont-raised, Edinburgh-educated. Ex-philosopher. Martial artist. Motorcycle rider. Love coffee, books, whisky, gaming, skiing, hiking, & nature.
A whirlwind couple of months, exhausting but worth it! Paris for the judo Veterans World Championship, London to see an old friend, and a first time in the California Bay Area to see the @carolinapanthers.bsky.social and check out the food with a local friend!

Finally, a journalism team that prints an accurate headline!

Just had to find it in Scotland. Courtesy of my good friend over there, who I hope will continue to send updates on the adequately abusive headlines that follow him everywhere.

I really do like Murakami's 1Q84... But I've been slowly grinding through it for 5 years behind everything else like it's some monumental mission that must be accomplished no matter what it takes.

Being handed this ticket at the #MA RMV feels like a (prescient) slap in the face from the Universe 😅😬

Great food, great friends, and a brutal judo workout... Can't really ask for better on a July 4 weekend! Especially while the country turns against its own purported values. Appreciate the people that still make life good. 😊

Getting ready for a couple hours of Sunday Funday. #judo

Faux wood paneling and sharing a free shot with the bar tender are solid indicators of a good Boston bar. I love post-judo social hour(s).

It was wonderful to train last night with our #judo guest, the incredible Friba Rezayee. Not only the first Afghan woman to ever compete in the Olympics, but a true trailblazer and champion for all women. On top of all that, she's simply a delightful person. It was an honour to have her on our mats!

At work on a dreary Boston day, my phone has decided it's appropriate to remind me of this gorgeous day by Lake Tahoe last summer. Thanks for rubbing it in, phone 😅

Beautiful summer days encourage proper lunch breaks from work... In this case fresh veggies grilled with Turkish spices 😋

Always wonderful to see an old friend for a visit, even if for a short time. And even if (or maybe especially when?) you have a good natured fight. 😊🥋

Solitary lunch out... A rare, self-indulgent, and sacred treat! 10/10 should do it again.

Well, I'm sure the plants disagree with 'alone', and it seems they keep wonderful company. But point taken - cheers! 🥃

It's been one week today, and there has STILL been no reason given for Rumeysa Öztürk's kidnapping by ICE. This country grows more unconscionable by the day.

Still very proud of the organizers and thousands who showed up in Somerville in less than 24 hours to support her and make our voices heard.

Great day of exceptional #karate at Demura Cup 2025! Remembering an absolute legend and great man, Fumio Demura. Thank you #GenbuKai

Boston can be pretty nice in winter ❄️

(Sadly not the best photographer and couldn't get rid of the window glare 😬)

Come for the fighting, stay for the community, mutual respect, and constant knowledge exchange.

Wonderful weekend in Pittsburgh!
