About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep it movin' to my soul's delight

ABOUT ME

I'm a little bit here
I'm a little bit there
I'm a little bit scattered everywhere

I have an open mind. I play soccer, and have since the age of 5. I try to keep things as natural as possible. You will most likely find me in nature. That is where I feel alive. The planet Earth endlessly fascinates me. I have a strong connection to the sense of smell. I like to paint and take pictures. I appreciate silence. Museums and parks are my thing. I like listening to people speak of their passions. I am an advocate for education. I am a dreamer.

I am on the left. I care about women's rights, racial issues/disparities, education, and protecting the environment.

PHILOSOPHY

Free your mind

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In a kayak in Alaskan waters on a warm summer day with a pod of 10+ whales feeding less than 100 yards from me, a pair of otters on my right, and bald eagles flying over me.
