CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

We met at college, dropped out, got married, travelled, moved a lot, and went back to school a few times. Ryan is finally finishing his degree at Cornell. Now we are figuring out what to do next. Due to our constant mobility, we often find ourselves living in tiny rooms, basements, and sheds.
