About Me

CURRENT MISSION
grow, evolve, learn, give, and have a blast!

ABOUT ME
I'm just a curious kid in the never-ending amusement park of life. I am easily excited and want to know everything about everything. I like to make others feel comfortable and ensure they are left with a smile. I enjoy doing anything that involves moving and/or thinking. I'm a philosopher, theologist, lover, master of the art of chilling, and party animal. I enjoy nearly every aspect of life, if it's not fun it's at least interesting.

I am a heterosexual man. Although I feel that sexual preference is extremely insignificant in regards to making friends, I have found it necessary to include this information here.

PHILOSOPHY
Life is a vacation. An opportunity to materialize in organic matter and enjoy the possibilities of 4(?) dimensions. Enjoy the beauty around us in people and things. Learn as much as we can about this world so to update the library of knowledge that is our consciousness. Be sure that when we die we look back and say WOOOO!! That was fun. My philosophy is always expanding and being critiqued. I KNOW that what I know is not THE truth, but just my best guess. I am always searching for information to persuade an update. Crazy huh? Owe there's more!

Interests

Life, happiness their means and their end. Enjoying every moment with other people enjoying every moment. Discovering new concepts and perspectives, and clarifying my own. Setting my ego aside and letting go. Exploring new areas, walking, reading, watching movies, drinking good beer and cheap rum, listening to good music and jumping up and down, scoring a goal, high fiving, doing anything I haven't already done.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flatlined! There is no better learning experience. Don't try this at home.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you to create a very effective public health or community development campaign. Or teach you how to paraglide. Or chew gum while walking without falling.
