I'm a musician and a midfielder at heart. I enjoy connecting with and collaborating with creative, inspired, passionate people, and am most comfortable when I'm in a new place surrounded by new people. I love a good conversation, and I enjoy exploring without an agenda and being spontaneous. My favorite things to do include playing the saxophone, the guitar, the piano, riding my bicycle, playing soccer, and cooking and eating fresh, delicious food. I believe in a need to create a better future for our planet and our species through compassion and respecting our natural world. I'm super easy going, always up for a new experience, and love to laugh.
