CURRENT MISSION

to think up and act out

ABOUT ME

I want to meet and hear stories.

I am fascinated by people and their social, political, biological, conceptual, linguistic structures and shapes. I talk a bit too much and can't dance, but love to.

PHILOSOPHY

It's all in the material, and that is more magical, and majestic, than anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My mother's ability to teach people to mend themselves, physically, with just their heads (and this is amazing because I am not a hippy, rather a bit of a skeptic!).

Teach, Learn, Share
