FAVORITES
Growing up, The Clash were my favorite band—obsessively so. They changed my life and made me see that there was a big world outside my shitty New Jersey town.

One of the highlights of my life was a month and a half spent as a non-dancer in choreographer Michael Clark's 2012 Whitney Biennial presentation. The NY Times likened myself and the other "non-dancers" to an "encroaching plague," but we got to dance alongside Jarvis Cocker and Relaxed Muscle in front of David Bowie and John Cameron Mitchell and Gia Kourlas didn't. Pictured below, my friend, superstar Deb Aruta, Jarvis Cocker, Jason Buckle (also in Relaxed Muscle), and moi.
