About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To share experience and extend compassion.

ABOUT ME

I am a very easy going, friendly person. I love adventure of all sorts and I am always up for trying something new. I find the most peace in nature and with meditation. I have found a deep serenity in my life and I wish to share my peace with others but I have no desire to impose my beliefs or change perspectives by force. I merely enjoy existing and enjoy sharing experiences with other conscious beings :)

PHILOSOPHY

Zen. Be at peace in each moment and the world will open to you like a flower to the sun.

Interests

Meditation, mountain biking, rock climbing, slack lining, reading, tree climbing, exploring, yoga, learning (Physics/ Philosophy major in college).

Music, Movies, and Books

ALL MUSIC! as long as it come from a place of pure expression rather than a greed for monetary gains.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My first experience of true presence gleaned through Zen meditation. All the thoughts in my mind drifted away and I was left in the pure expansive reality of the present. Boy is it a beautiful existence we have on this earth!

Summiting a mountain top with my brother and two close friends on a long backpacking trip, we gazed out over the vast expanse of granite and pines reminded of the scale of our being.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn from others experiences and share my own. I have progressed a lot in the discovery of peace and I want to share my peace with all beings. Love and compassion drive my interactions.
