About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To connect with people, and learn their stories.

ABOUT ME

I'm a very laid back and relaxed person. Always up to try something new. And quick to stretch out a friendly hand.

Interests

Music, films, and photography. I would say that these are my three loves. I'm always trying to find, discover, and share new music. I feel a good film can bring people together. And I love how a single photograph can say more than a well constructed essay.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moments that leave me awestruck, at a loss for words, tend to be moments that might underwhelm others. Most recently I was standing in a coconut grove. The sun was setting and the shadows getting longer. Sitting there in the quiet, in the stillness, left me awestruck. To think of this life I have to live. To see the beauty in the world. I am often taken back by the beauty around us that often goes overlooked.
