I am a student at the evergreen state college studying agriculture and politics. Specifically how redesigning agriculture systems can effect the way countries work and how people relate to each other. I believe that a more just world is possible and that we should be committed towards working for that. I am currently traveling in Mexico learning Spanish and learning more about the socio economic situation of people here. Back home I work on a small scale organic veggie farm during the summer. I enjoy reading and hiking and for a number of years I was a wilderness therapy guide.

Interests

I have a wide range of interest from being way in the back country to deep electronic bass music to working with food not bombs to farming but they all feel connected to the same joy in living for me.

I love documentaries and recently I have been reading about the Zapatistas and their role in there own liberation and also their role in Mexican politics at large.
