Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Meet cool peeps & save some bank.
I'm an illustrator, motorcyclist, former roller derby referee. Fed hummingbirds from my mouth, sheltered a dying heron. Traveled through Turkey and Spain on motorcycle.
PHILOSOPHY
Mark Twain put it pretty nicely... "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
