About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just chilling in Yap!

ABOUT ME

I'm living and working as an environmental consultant with the Yap State Department of Marine Resources. I will be here at least until July 2015 (despite CS listing my location as being in Pohnpei, I am actually in Yap). My house is kind of a tree house and is incredibly small, and is in the middle of nowhere, but I may have floor space.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lots of really cool stuff!

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a few different languages. I know about the the resources of the world. I know a lot about trees. And a lot about the commercial fishing and the sea. I know a lot about kayaking. I know a lot about designing labels. But nothing else!
