About Me

CURRENT MISSION
See more Pacific Ocean.

ABOUT ME
I am a Journeyman plumber. I enjoy the arts, creating and self expression are my true passion. My dream is to have an art studio. These days I only have time to take dance classes, hip hop and Breakdancing. Definitely in the going out and getting crazy on the dance floor once a while.
I currently live in a tiny home in the woods by Lake Tahoe with my beloved MC and enjoy traveling together when we can.
Last, I am a very avid tea drinker Asian style, Sencha from Japan, Oolongs from Taiwan and Pu-erh from China. Sharing tea is life’s simplest most amazing pleasures.
PHILOSOPHY
If I am the water
and you the tea
My plain-ness
depends solely on your fragrances

We are all connected. (MC)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hopped on a sailboat as a crew member in Tahiti; sailed to Rarotonga, Nuie and Tonga. Had never sailed before and had to pinch myself to make sure I was not dreaming. Definitely had some beginners lucky on that expedition but the reward experience was one in a million.

Teach, Learn, Share

Being courteous and willing to listen.
I had an art teacher "everything you need to know you learned in Kindergarden."
