My Background

I was born in the great city of New York, but grew up in Irvington-on-Hudson, a cozy little suburb around half an hour away from the bustling metropolis. Right now, I'm home in Irvington while I work on transferring to an undergraduate institution closer to home. When I'm not philosophizing, I enjoy modernist literature and art, tennis, hiking, travel, and Thai food. Enjoy my website, and feel free to E-mail any questions you have to dematted@reed.edu.
