CURRENT MISSION

roll up my sleeves.

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Western New York. Graduated highschool and went to college—hated the atmosphere and left. Since then I've been living/working/learning in Maine, California, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Peru, and Bolivia. Presently sprouting little roots back in Western New York, realizing it's beauty and meeting great people close to "home." But I have to take semi-frequent getaways to the great Adirondack Mountains, or to Vermont's Green Mountains or the White Mountain Forest in New Hampshire... you get the idea.

PHILOSOPHY

purpose-creating-existentialism

Music, Movies, and Books

Almost all music aside from top 40's and country. Movies that make me think. Alot of the books. (Hermann Hesse is my favorite author.)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My first apartment on my own was in Sucre, Bolivia where I traveled/lived/volunteered for 3 months.

Teach, Learn, Share

Currently interested in learning about the nature of the North Eastern U.S. Flora, fauna, geography, et cetera. I'd like to learn how to make relief prints and I'm always looking to hone a green thumb. Also exploring possibilities in Alternative Education.
