As a performer, I am great at reading people and can provide a fun, informative, and welcoming tour for any group of people, regardless of age or special interest.

Aside from the standard NYC related stuff: theatre and film, long distance running, triathlons, the great outdoors, bowhunting.

Visit https://www.nyadventureclub.com/ to book my tour of Tribeca, the downtown neighborhood where I grew up in an artist's loft. In person or virtually, I take you through the cobblestoned alleys of a much misunderstood, and historically rich area, ending at the wonderful, and very old bar, The Ear Inn.
