Outside of academia, my life is built around community-building and music. I spent nine summers working at URJ Crane Lake Camp in West Stockbridge, Massachusetts, a Jewish overnight camp that builds up the self-esteem of children and college students. In my time there, I was a cabin counselor, a song leader, the leader of the Programming team, and a mentor for young counselors.

My music writing can be found at albumism and popmatters.
