About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Right now; to learn more about the Canadian way of life. Folks have lived over here (in SK) for almost 5years so I'd like to find out if all the nice things I've heard are true :)

ABOUT ME

I like to meet people and love the opportunity to learn new things. I think getting a perspective of any place from local people is an essential part in the understanding of that place and its appeal. I am helpful and empathetic, curious and passionate.

PHILOSOPHY

Feet on the ground, head in the clouds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My friends amaze me constantly with their kindness. As far as the things I've done, teaching school kids about printmaking was a rewarding experience, and helping cows give birth back in my "farm-boy" days I guess sticks with you too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have skills in Photoshop and Illustrator for Mac, aswel as knowledge of screenprinting techniques. I believe anyone can draw, and I don't mind being given the opportunity to prove that :)
