CURRENT MISSION

live a story worth telling

ABOUT ME

I love stories. I recently started a podcast of true stories. I'd love to hear yours! I'm also getting an MBA with a marketing concentration at the University of Tennessee, Chattanooga.
I graduated with a Bachelors in Theology December 2009. I love discussing the Bible, the Quran, and other religious texts. I love to listen to people's religious or anti-religious views.
I love to travel and to meet new people. I especially love to travel cheaply. The best thing about traveling is meeting different people in different contexts and seeing how they do life. I am very flexible, accepting, phlegmatic, and adapting. I want to experience your culture and your way of doing things. Every home/family has its own unique and interesting subculture rooted local history and tradition. Every perspective is worth hearing, every idea worth considering.
I enjoy reading, soccer, religion, but most of all, I just like to sit down with people and learn about them, hear their story, and find out what makes them tick, what fills their headspace, what makes them excited, what worries them, and why they get up every day and do what they do. Whether I'm hosting you or looking to crash on your couch, I'd love to meet you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in a short bus for 2 winters with no heat in Maine.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love discussing people's religious or anti-religious views. I'm not confrontational, I'm curious. I don't want to debate you, I want to hear your point of view and consider its beauties and idiosyncrasies.

I've taught crocheting, swing dancing, theology, journal making. I'd love to learn other crafts, words in another language, info/stories from other religions, history, art, music.
