CURRENT MISSION

Do meaningful work to improve the state of irrigation in Oregon and get outdoors.

ABOUT ME

I've always been a US citizen but grew up in the heart of Oslo. Lived, studied and worked in Oregon and California before joining the Peace Corps to volunteer for two years as a math teacher in Malawi. Love to travel and meet people. I enjoy technical and creative work and exploring environmentally conscious lifestyles, new ideas, and the unparalleled beauty of raw nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Allow people the freedom to discover their own purpose, to grow to be the the individual they were meant to be.
