I aim to live a peaceful life of reconciliation and kindness.

I write often and socialize frequently. I protect time to myself yet sacrifice for fellowship and friendship.

I am active and growingly calm.

My athletic passions are rock climbing, volleyball, and soccer.

I like to read and to think and to discuss deeply.

I love honesty and pursue integrity.

I seek to live a life that encourages others to become that person they hope yet rarely trust themselves to be.

I am very passionate and strive to stay 💯

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

ONE amazing thing?

I should be dead on many accounts, yet live.

I have hiked to the top of Mt. Harvard and Mt. Columbia among 2 other similar peaks (14,000 + ft.) and rested among the beauty therein.

**I have followed a Spirit into total abandon and survived.. thrived. **

Teach, Learn, Share

All have knowledge yet all can learn.
All have purpose yet all can be humbled.
All have desire yet all can sacrifice.
All have, yet all can give.

So... teach, learn, share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A safe and warm Energy.
Passion.
Massage.
