I believe in treating others with respect and dignity. This belief comes from within and is based upon all of my experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked 500 miles in 28 days across Spain. I've also gone spelunking in Mexico and almost died.

Teach, Learn, Share

We could teach each other cooking techniques. I'm especially good at making breakfast and cooking certain cuts of meat. I like to cook Mexican and Southwest U.S. food. I can also help you with your mathematics and statistics homework.

I'd like to learn more about art. I'm also interested in unlearning the language of the oppressors. I'd like to learn to speak in a way that
promotes the expansion of basic human rights. Much of the way we speak promotes the status quo.
