Books


In 2020, I reignited my love of reading. Most of my library is philosophy, fiction, or self help.

Here are the books I'm reading right now in LibraryThing. Linked here are all the books I've read since restarting my reading in 2020.

My annotations can be found in book notes and clearer thoughts will be found in my blog posts.

These are some of my favorite books:

  • Nichomachean Ethics by Aristotle
  • Ethics by Baruch de Spinoza
  • White Noise by Don Delillo
  • Collected Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges
  • Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport
  • Thinking Like a Mall by Stephen Vogel
  • Animal Ethics in Context by Clare Palmer
  • Art as Experience by John Dewey

Movies


During a Summer in high school, I watched a movie per day, starting my interest in film. My favorites are Synechdoche New York, Princess Mononoke, Network, and Perfect Blue. Below are some recent films Ive seen.

Music


I try to keep up with the music scene as much as I can My favorite genres have been shoegaze, 60's jazz, and hardcore, but I try to vary what I listen to as much as possible. Below are a few of my ranked playlists you can check out if you want :)

Coding

Throughout college, I have been learning python for my data science minor but very recently fell in love with computer science in general. This website is my first foray into computer science and if I continue loving it, I'll be sure to populate this page with some projects soon.

Art

For most of my life, I have been creating art with my main mediums being illustration, embroidery, and digital (illustrator, animate, and a bit of photoshop). This past year, I have been pretty busy with art, and will post some of my work here soon.

Sports

About a year ago, I tried running for the first time and fell in love with the sport. Since then, I have been regularly running and am now training for the 2026 Boston Marathon! More casually, I also enjoy hiking, rollerblading around the city, hitting the gym, tennis, and table tennis.

I also love meditation and breathwork as well, which has been a vital part of my routine. For more on this, I highly recommend James Nestor's book, "Breath."
