CURRENT MISSION

Figuring out what makes me come alive and how I can use it to serve the world.

ABOUT ME

No longer a student, about to be again soon. Taking the time now to live and grow and experience the world. Taking the time now to laugh and love. I love to dance and run and sing and climb. I recently started doing some circus arts and will hopefully continue that for a while because I love aerial fabric. I'm going to be applying for nursing school soon to become a midwife so that I can support women on that amazing journey and be a part of the circle of life.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life's not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain."
"To know one's limits is to limit oneself to the self that one knows."
"We leave the places we love to find that love is in every place."
Love is never lost. The love I feel with another human being is not separate from me. That love is inside me, ready to be shared with all human beings, including myself... even if the person who helped me discover it is no longer part of my life.
When I am present to this moment I have everything I need... and a smile just comes.
