About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Rocking out in Raleigh.

ABOUT ME

I'm an environmental organizer, which means I'm like a community organizer who works on environmental campaigns. I move around a lot, depending on the campaign.

I'm fun, easy-going but hard-working. Generally extroverted. I'm from Omaha, NE originally. I like to cook, and I love to sit down over a long meal

PHILOSOPHY

If it's worth complaining about, it's worth doing something about. Most people are worth getting to know.

"The biggest sin is sitting on your ass." I didn't say that first, but I like whoever did.

Standing at a wind farm in Colorado at midnight with a clear sky.

I spent some time in the Dominican Republic too, and that was beautiful, fulfilling and life-changing.
