CURRENT MISSION

To just be.

ABOUT ME

I'm into live music (most kinds!), meeting interesting people, learning about other cultures and languages, photography and art, getting lost in a new part of town. Coffee and wine and all the good things in life. Easy going, friendly, health professional.

PHILOSOPHY

Kindness and compassion to all beings. Vegetarian. Guided by Buddhist philosophies. Environmentally conscious.
