ABOUT ME
I am currently spending time in Oakland between seasons on a Permaculture homestead on Orcas Island, WA. In my free time I like to garden, cook, skateboard, hike/camp, go out for a drink, photography; to name a few.

PHILOSOPHY

Simplicity in life. Everything is part of a series of interconnected systems. No expectations, only an open mind.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

Cooking. Gardening. Environmental education. Photography. Skateboarding. Massage, crafting, plant identification and wild plant hunting, cleaning, Building a shelter/fire in the wilderness. I can proofread something you've written...Probably some other things I could help you with if you ask. Also always happy to have a deep/intellectual/new ideas conversation.

I would love to learn what you can teach me that I might not know about the things above or anything similarly related. Not sure I can say there's anything in particular I'd like to learn, maybe some musical notes on any given instrument or new recipes. Fruit tree pruning...haha whatever you have to offer.
