CURRENT MISSION

To live more fully in the present.

ABOUT ME

I grew up outside of Portland, Oregon and have spent a good portion of my Adult life in Alaska. The last three years I've been in Juneau working in a Marine Chemistry Lab. I've recently moved back to the lower 48 and am excited to be back back in warmer climes.

PHILOSOPHY

To live life more thoroughly in the present and through that do away with worry, insecurity, guilt which only act to clutter life experience and hamper freedoms.
