About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a big fan of human rights and stewardship to the global commons.

PHILOSOPHY

I strive for the following:

Listen to the supreme being of my conscience, follow the guidance of my gut, and be completely in awe* of the greatness of humanity, the tender, nurturing, feminine spirit** (that most all of us felt as a baby).

* also to protect (stand against that which threatens to destroy) beauty

**to be found in the hands of a farmer holding his shovel, the touch of a mother on a baby's forehead, the eyes of a dignified father who's stuck around, the entwinement of lovers, two hearts now one, shared by two souls, holding eachother in full awe, whose simple act of being together form the greatest monument of our dear race.

be a global citizen.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

wandered all over the states, culminating in two projects: www.bathroomscribbles.com and www.homelesssouls.com

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you some photography basics, or I could show you all the research-resources my library has to offer.

What can you teach me? I'd love to learn how to make a flag, and how to promote artistic endeavors better through electronic mediums and social networks. Also, any writers out there, any advice on getting published would be AMAZING.
