CURRENT MISSION

To be the truth I constantly find myself searching for in the universe

ABOUT ME

I am the oldest of three, but I have countless brothers and sisters. I live a rich life, but I am always seeking more knowledge, love, strength, and purpose.

I was born in New Orleans, went to high school in Southern California, and spent nine years in Seattle, Washington.

I returned to New Orleans in June of 2008 and I'm currently teaching high school AP Language/Literature & Composition. Things have been pretty solid since I came home... Well, for the most part. You know, New Orleans is always a strange and wonderful adventure!

The struggle and the adventure continues!

PHILOSOPHY

People should constantly strive to refine themselves.

If the way I live can have a positive effect on another person's life, I'm doing well!

There is definitely a rhythm to life and I have to keep it.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sasquatch Festival 2007! Well, maybe not so much the festival, as the second day at the gorge... Tatjana, Natasha, Nicole, and I decided to stay at the campground, and it had to be one of the most amazing experiences I've ever shared with three other living creatures.
