About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission objective is to meet good people and spread good vibes.

ABOUT ME

Hello world, I'm a musician and aspiring scientist currently residing in the San Francisco Bay Area. I work as an ecologist at a small biological consulting company in Berkeley specializing in wetlands mitigation and restoration. Some hobbies of mine are playing music, listening to classic Jamaican reggae, rocksteady, and ska music, sailing, riding my bike, and enjoying natural open spaces. I love traveling and seeing new places, and am currently trying to incorporate the traveling way of life into my normal working life in Berkeley.

PHILOSOPHY

"So live as if you were living already for the second time and as if you had acted the first time as wrongly as you are about to act now!” - Viktor E. Frankl
