About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Nothing ventured = Nothing gained

ABOUT ME

I'm an adverterous person and I love meeting new people (kind of the reason I'm on this site). I really enjoy traveling to new places, giving new experiences a worthy try and making new connections whereever I go. I have worked in Japan, France and currently am about to start my new life as a teacher. My ambition to teach comes from my love of learning and helping others to foster a similar appreciation for this wonderful gift. It's an amazing thing when someone looks at you and says....Ohhhh... I get it!!! haha. Anyways, enough about that.

I am a drummer and have played in a couple of bands, most recently in a very talented punk/ska band called Lost Cause, heard of us??

I hope you will be encouraged to meet me because I bet I'd be willing to meet you! Life is full of surprises just waiting to happen!

PHILOSOPHY

Perception is Reality...how true it is.
