CURRENT MISSION

Live a full life

ABOUT ME

Traveling and meeting new people is at the top of my favorite things to do list. I enjoy being outdoors in natural environments and live in a beautiful area full of outdoor sights and activities. I love to travel to cities and experience that variety knowing I can come back to the place I call home. In cities I enjoy museums, mostly art, music, dance and theatre.

PHILOSOPHY

To live with an open heart.

Algo increíble que he hecho

My favorite trips have been- Highway One in California, Canyon DeChelly, Durham Cathedral (singing there)in England, and riding a bike as well as performing in a play in Ireland. And my favorite hike up a mountain (Grandfather) is less than 10 miles from my house.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I currently run a program for young adults with intellectual disabilities at a university. I am also a theatre artist and I most enjoy directing and designing puppets. I am also passionate about social issues and environmental justice. I like thinking about and creating art that pushes boundaries and makes people think which led me to spend a summer at Bread and Puppet Theatre in Vermont. I like to cook, and I am good at networking. I can usually find less than 6 degrees of separation between someones idea or interest and someone I can connect them to.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I have lived in the area most of my life so I know the places to go, including those off the beaten track. I have a friendly cat who may be shy at first but enjoys company.
