- Being 23 and in my last year of college. Interning for a TV company to then be promoted as a newly launching channel's programmer. I eventually left that job to finish my last semester of school. Also, being so closeted that I would quickly change the channel from Logo at a heartbeat if someone walked in my living room.
- My goal to work in publishing landing me on the business side of a food magazine.
- Losing my job at said magazine before working front of house jobs. Then feeling burnt-out from working in the NYC food industry and abandoning everything to give it a try in Seoul. While there, I worked as a bartender in one of the city's gay areas while I struggled to find other jobs.
- Being told to leave Korea if I didn't enlist in the military by a certain deadline. Then heading to Thailand for what I thought would be a two month trip.
- Leaving Thailand after two years and living in Los Angeles for a short period.
- Returning to NYC to start over again.
- Starting my freelance writing stuff. Then working in the industry while just trying to figure my shit out.
- Going to Seoul for a writing project, only to come back empty handed.
- Returning to NYC to start over again.
- Trying to figure stuff out again before eventually starting my current gig at the onset of the pandemic.
