I grew up in Lansing, Michigan, and I currently live in Cazenovia, New York, with my wife, Emily, and our twelve-year-old son, Sam. For those who are interested, these are some of my favorite things to do when I'm not studying and teaching political theory:
- Hiking and camping in the Adirondacks, or (better yet) the Southern Alps, where the photo above was taken in February 2024
- Playing tennis, shooting hoops with Sam, and hanging out at Caz Lake in the summer
- Cross-country skiing at Highland Forest in the winter (my absolute favorite activity of any kind)
- Rooting for Michigan State and the Boston Celtics
