CURRENT MISSION

To learn more about soc/env problems+struggles everywhere.. and meet amazing people!

ABOUT ME

I'm a self-styled "environmentalist" and am very interested all under the social justice umbrella and whatever constitutes a life consistent with that (to the betterment of all.)
i like.. lots of things, love chatting with folks.. going for a bike/hike..

PHILOSOPHY

still working on that..
I strive to be open to everything/one, and not be so stung by the criticisms that everyone (and their mother?) have to dish out, especially to the sensitive!

Working on "live and let die," and "Life is too short so love the one you got..."
