There is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.
— Vincent van Gogh

A good friend is a connection to life - a tie to the past, a road to the future, the key to sanity in a totally insane world.
― Lois Wyse

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've hiked to the top of the volcanic Mt. Batur in Bali, Indonesia to watch the sunrise.

Teach, Learn, Share

I really love learning about others. I find that the more I understand someone the more I understand myself.

Additionally, I am recent graduate of a doctoral physical therapy program and am a practicing physical therapist with a holistic mindset.

Discussing metaphysics and ways to build community are always fun for discussion too.
