My name is Nick Dazé. It’s pronounced comme ça: da•zay, emphasis on the second syllable. Pronounce it right and we’ll get on swimmingly.

I’m all over the place. Not emotionally or mentally, just in terms of curiosity. Let’s strike up a conversation about poetry (1790 or later), genetics, Old Hollywood, education reform, the cosmos, or great people.

I love women in every way imaginable, but man-crushes include Buckminster Fuller, Steve Jobs, Jimmy Stewart, Walt Whitman, Jim Henson, JFK, Carl Sagan, and Roald Dahl. Well, Roald Dahl’s writing, not his politics.

This is a photo of me on a sailboat recently:
