ABOUT ME

I'm a journalist and a geographer.

I live in St. Thomas and write about environmental change and food security. I like whiskey.

PHILOSOPHY

Do things that raise your self-confidence and make the world a better place for others. Life is too short not to be optimistic every day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a summer living in the US southwest. I never knew I'd love the desert so much.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn how others see the world and how they perceive where they live.

I can share a light-hearted, witty conversation full of laughs or a deep, meaningful one. I like talking to people about what they value and discussing what they see as as ideal way-of-life. I also like sharing perspectives on economics, politics, and current events.

Countries I’ve Visited
