CURRENT MISSION

To connect with others and learn as much as I can!

ABOUT ME

I am a leather mask maker in California. I travel to sell at renaissance faires during the summer and until recently I was making bridal jewelry full time. I've spent the last six years based in Santa Cruz, CA and I'm now searching for a new home.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is the art of drawing without an eraser.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Can't choose one, so here is a rant :) ...Kayaking and bouldering in tahoe, van life on the California coast, canoeing in a thunderstorm (rather, a summer storm crept up on us we frantically rowed to the shore to get out of the water before the storm hit.....didn't quite make it and got soaked, but it was a lot of fun!), swimming with turtles in Hawaii, kayaking/zip lining/atving/scuba diving Hawaii, listening to music generated by an organ that was connected to metal rods that tapped on different stalactites to produce different notes in a beautiful cave on the east coast, designing a haunted trail through a corn field for over 10,000 guests (I miss walking through the corn and night and having chupacabras jump out at me), snowboarding at an amazing (and quiet ski resort...we were the only family there!) while having bronchitis and a sinus infection...but it was totally worth it!.. there's more!
