I’m an artist and love to meet new people! If you like to get outside for a hike or explore the Old Port in Portland, lighthouses on the coast or grab a local bite to eat, I’d love to show you around our little part of Maine!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve landed a helicopter on a Navy ship in a storm at sea. Really! :)
