About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Cooking and eating EVERYTHING

ABOUT ME

I came out of a small liberal arts college not knowing how to DO anything, so I'm trying the basics of living: growing food and making shelter.

I love freshly-harvested foods, climbing trees, feminism, mountains, singing songs, travel, Ultimate (frisbee), contra and swing dancing, games, public transit, and my dog. I'm a queer ally. I want to build a house from scratch (especially if it's from locally-sourced, sustainable materials).

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is impermanent.

"Until you stalk and overrun, you can't devour anyone"
-Hobbes (Bill Watterson)

Interests

Maps, building, cooking, eating, Ultimate Frisbee, travel, singing, playing ukulele, sustainability
