About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Short term - DC in January, London in July

ABOUT ME

I am an eclectic amalgam of ideas and interests. I have hitch hiked through the states, traveled in Belize, went to Greece and Italy in High School, and been to the 5 corners of the country. When I hike I like to find the high places were the wind is in the trees, when I bike I like to sweat and when I listen to music I like to be surprised. I do my best to keep an open mind to the variety of life.

PHILOSOPHY

We can build great things by working together. We can solve complex problems through cooperation.
