CURRENT MISSION

To simultaneously allow change and to create change in my life and life around me

ABOUT ME

I don't think we always need answers. We need to learn how to just be-- more often. BUT! I live life always questioning; it inspires creativity and new perceptions.
I like thinking about things that are hard to describe.
I suppose I live in Chicago, however, I have been wondering why that is always a question- I tend to always be traveling somewhere. It is all for art.

PHILOSOPHY

To always be aware of my instincts- to purely and honestly listen -to be aware-to be conscious:of myself, the people in my life, all that surrounds me. To act, not react.
