sorry for the copy/paste but simon is 23 going on 24 in a month and a student in nyu's graduate art education program. he grew up in englewood, new jersey but moved to the city for college. his parents were super religious growing up, reform orthodox jews who kept a strict kosher house and sort of sheltered him so he really broke out of his shell after moving away to school. he's probably much more extroverted in comparison now and went through the whole experimental phase in college where he partied a little too hard, drank and smoked a little too much, but quickly learned to moderate everything. that's what i have for him at the moment!
