Hey, what’s up?

Just realized #introduction is overdue.

I’m Erik, and I use he/him pronouns.

I’m 50 something years old and live with my spouse, two teenage kids, two cats, and two dogs. My oldest child is away at college as a #botany major.

For the last 13 years I’ve biked for transportation. I follow the #BikeTooter and #BikeNite tags.

I make art, mostly #figuredrawing and #printmaking

I build software in the film industry.

I play in a biweekly tabletop role playing game.
