Visual art, writing, music, film, improv, and gardening are all in rotation. Based in Connecticut. I was born in New York City and grew up in the woods with a koosh vortex mega howler and a DK illustrated book about Dracula, which I begged my parents to hide in a dusty cabinet, which made it creepier. Many years later, I myself came out of the closet.

In undergrad, I studied writing, film, visual art, and psychology at Yale and Goddard (BA '16), and afterward I spent a few terms studying mental health counseling at NYU.

One day when I was working at the Yale University Art Gallery, our boss's son was telling my coworkers what they’d be if they were animals. My friend said, "What about Cole?" The child looked over at me, smiled wickedly, and said, "A log."
