CURRENT MISSION

I am increasingly adopting my role as facilitator of the holistic lifestyle through the power of dialogue and networking

ABOUT ME

I rock climb for focus. I wander for hours under the open skies for clarity. I indulge in incredible conversations for connection. I laugh just for the hell of it and I find silence for peace.

I love my simple life and I love the dynamic and incredibly vast people in it. I'm looking for more connections, more opportunities to learn and grow. I always want to be looking for the good in humanity.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life for the moment. I get a kick out of all kinds of crzy cool experiences by appreciating the wild world of right now!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stayed in a remote Mayan village when I was 11 yrs down in Yucatan. The village had no electricity and we just tramped through the jungles for months. Perfect adventure as a kid!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share my knowledge in web design. And, even more so, my passion for hand percussion. If you like drumming I will share indefinitely. I'm addicted to it.
