CURRENT MISSION

To bridge the great divide

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Portland, Oregon. Now I live in Idaho...yeah, pretty awesome I know.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in freedom. I'm not talking about politics although that is also good. I mean freedom of the soul. The freedom that comes when we don't fear eachother and when we learn to live together. I believe in love. I think people need to laugh more. I think its okay to watch Star Trek sometimes. I think bars get a bad wrap but they bring people together and thats pretty great. I think sometimes you just need to listen to The Cranberries. When I watch Dead Poets Society I want to be a writer. And Val Kilmer is a good actor, he's just had some bad roles.
