About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be present

ABOUT ME

I'm 23, I was born in Los Angeles and currently attend Hampshire College in Amherst Massachusetts where I study architecture and surfboard design. I like to create things with people, new ideas, MUSIC, art, dance, anything that is spontaneous and fresh.
I'm currently riding across the U.S. on a motorcycle with a friend of mine, and would love to explore some of the depth the country has to offer.

PHILOSOPHY

Be honest with people and yourself, stay anchored, stay rooted, play as much as you can, and constantly push yourself to do and be something new and different.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

stories like this are better saved for face to face time :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature,
nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.
Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits
in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.
- Helen Keller
