REGARDING COVID

I am trying to be as safe as possible. I wear a mask at all sessions (both inside and outside) and continually sanitize myself (so. much. hand. sanitizer.) and my gear.

I try to keep a distance between myself and others.

And I try to get regular Covid tests.
(for free, easy covid testing - please check out Curative - they have so many locations throughout the area).

If you have any questions and/or if there's anything I can do to make you feel safer - please let me know!!
