CURRENT MISSION

I am a world traveler, surfing the pulse of humanity for poetic inspiration with movement filled interludes of dance & breath & beauty. I am a seeker of justice & peace... a non-violent warrior training in ancient sword forms & martial art techniques.

ABOUT ME

and you will learn all you'll ever want to know about me (well maybe just about everything but my favorite ice-cream flavor---I won't reveal that until we are actually face-to-face).

PHILOSOPHY

Survival for All of Us... I live my life to connect with others... Trust Before Suspicion... to balance and find moments of deep breath and unique communication... with spirit and laughter and awareness... I have loved and I have lost... and I am still learning how to let go of both and still feel complete without needing order or chaos... black or white... good or evil...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiked across West Africa (almost 3,000 miles)... also hitchhiked across the United States (from San Francisco to New Jersey)... climbed to Mt. Everest Base Camp, been skydiving twice... traveled on a boat around the world for 4 months and visited 11 countries in the process... worked as a youth special representative to the U.N.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe in desire based learning not fear based learning... we have to shift educational practices and pedagogy so that it reflects this need.
