CURRENT MISSION

learn to trust the universe

ABOUT ME

I am a very open-minded and positive person who is willing to go with the flow and help out along the way. I love to laugh but I can never seem to remember any jokes... I don't believe in coincidences and I love finding friends wherever I go!

I grew up in suburbia, USA and was so bored I soaked up everything I could about music, art, literature, and began dreaming about traveling the world. I started playing the violin at age five and have never stopped. I will never stop learning. I decided to become a "jack of all trades" and at age 18 moved to New York City. I am now ready to get back on the road!!

I have always been musical and indeed music is my first language. With my violin, my guitar, my harp, my accordion, my hands: I love to communicate with the people of the world!!

PHILOSOPHY

"Go with the flow and stay in the moment." I am humbled by life and find magic and mystical thinking everywhere I go.
