About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Move to Cali., find community, spread compassionate communication, and have fun

ABOUT ME

I like finding cool junk in old jean pockets, finding long lost friends, getting messy, walking barefoot on grass, laughing myself sore, and winking at strangers. I value friends and family above all else. Based on my life changing experiences in Tamera, Portugal (www.tamera.org) I have plans of finding and living in an intentional community, or at least near a whole lot of loved ones.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that life is a big game of hide and seek with the unity. By shedding our ego-skin, we're able to connect to others and even reconnect with our source. I believe my main purpose in life is to connect to others through compassion, to expand my ego boundaries, and to work toward an internal space where service is the highest joy... I'm working on it :)
