Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel the world, find cool people, meet a dinosaur!
ABOUT ME
I want to laugh all day and do silly dances. I want to drink too much coffee and run around in a playground. I love to build things and be creative (the last two things I made were a cajon and a suitcase kick drum). I want to make music that people connect with. I want to meet new and interesting folks.
PHILOSOPHY
I'm a lover, not a fighter and a true optimist. Nothing gets me down and I try to live my life as compassionately as possible. Life has more meaning than just money, jobs, and fancy things. Also, I'm proud to be a vegan.
Sometimes I meet people or experience things, even when they are small or simple, like exchanging smiles, hearing about someone's dad, or watching the stoplight turn from red to green, and i get all emotional, as if it's the most beautiful thing that's ever happened. That being said, I also don't take anything too seriously, I'm a super happy person.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love a lot of different kinds of music, too many to list. Not much into movies or TV, i'd rather read. One of the last good books I read was Ecotopia!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I fostered a rescued dog who was on the verge of being put down. I gave him a haircut, a bath, food, water, and love until I found him a permanent home. It may not seem like a huge deed but making a difference starts small and for that one little dog, it mattered. That experience is a daily reminder in my life to do little things to make a difference in the world because if everyone did a little, a lot would happen.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to bake some delicious vegan cookies, I'm pretty good at cutting hair, and I can help you with your English (sadly the only language I know). We can also play music together! I play drums, guitar, and piano. I'd love to hear about your country/city and your experiences. Teach me anything and everything!
