Copywriter. Bibliophile. Plant dad.
10 fun facts about me:
I love writing song lyrics
I came out when I was 11
I’ve been to every round of Raptors playoffs since they started making them again (yes, finals included and yes, the tickets were a ridiculous price)
My 70+ houseplants have an Instagram with 12k+ followers (@manwiththeplant)
My dog also has one with even more (@asher_weimaraner)
If I was a drag queen my name would be Ella May O.
I design all my own tattoos
I have over 600 books (2nd time reading this? Thanks for reading my ‘Books’ page!)
I went to a performing arts high school where I did four years of musical theatre
