CURRENT MISSION

Continue to take baby steps towards a more compassionate lifestyle.

ABOUT ME

I like animals. I like being outside. I like learning.

I moved from Miami to Brooklyn 2 years ago and am wondering what my next adventure should be. Maybe California with year round sunshine on my face:) In Miami I worked at a university doing evolutionary genetics research and plan on going to grad school for genetics as well; however, at the moment I'm a behavior analyst for the Center for Autism and will be traveling around this next year servicing clients all over the world :)

PHILOSOPHY

If you're not marginally uncomfortable, you're probably doing it wrong.

Always looking for that balance between risk and comfort.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteering for the Marine Mammal Conversancy with a mass pilot whale standing in the Florida Keys.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer infinite amounts of dad jokes. I hope you can do the same.
