A group we’d makeFort Greene · 6 people
Maya, 29
Fort Greene
Designs hotel interiors. Keeps a spreadsheet of every restaurant she’s liked since 2019 and has recently decided she can DJ. Early reviews are mixed.
Devin, 31
Clinton Hill
Mechanical engineer building warehouse robots. Makes extremely good furniture for someone who insists woodworking is “just something to do with his hands.”
Catherine, 27
Bed-Stuy
Fashion editor, Knicks obsessive, occasional amateur astrologer when it benefits her argument. Will take two days to text back and then send eleven messages.
Sam, 33
Prospect Heights
ER doctor. Got serious about cooking during residency and now owns enough kitchen equipment to make this everyone else’s problem. Usually ends up hosting.
Jules, 28
Greenpoint
Books musicians for a living and somehow still likes going to shows. Grew up in Queens and appears to have retained every friend she’s made since 2007.
Theo, 30
Fort Greene
Documentary editor. Plays mediocre tennis, reads biographies of people he doesn’t like, and remembers almost everything anyone tells him. Occasionally inconvenient.
Why these six?
We think they should know each other.
We could be wrong.
