CURRENT MISSION

Make enough money to build a sustainable community with my cousin in Texas. Or maybe the country of Georgia (there's no property tax).

ABOUT ME

I love learning and seeing new things. I have studied, practiced, and taught yoga and qigong, and I have an interest in a wide variety of things including (but not limited to): nutrition, ayurveda, Chinese medicine, functional movement, strength training, western mysticism, tantra, history, science, psychology, philosophy, mythology, and pretty much everything else.

PHILOSOPHY

Theravadan Buddhism, for the most part. Also interested in American pragmatism, stoicism, and pretty much anything Greek or Indian.
