Hello,
I'm a 30 year old guy. I have lived in Rochester, NY since 2002. I was born in Rhode Island and raised around Boston. I enjoy talking with people and learning from their gifts. I love animals (birds especially) and have a deep empathy for all living creatures.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy ambient, new age, jazz, and folk music. John Serrie is a great new age artist. I like Star Trek movies (not the new ones) and the Lord of the Rings series. I enjoy films with heart and of a gentle nature like the Secret Garden, Waking Ned Divine, and the Life of Birds. I do not enjoy violent and depressing movies, we already have the news. Reading many non-fiction books currently.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Achieved a moment of deep enlightenment and allowed it to leave without angst. Attended a positive reinforcement behavioral training workshop for free flighted birds.

Teach, Learn, Share
