CURRENT MISSION

It's all about the journey ...

ABOUT ME

I work for a non-profit implementing community and economic development projects for low-income residents in disadvantaged urban communities. Efforts focused on workforce and community reinvestment as well as "greening" rundown industrial areas through environmental cleanup and reuse.

Well-grounded, great sense of humor, and an interesting perspective on life in general. My "coolness factor" has been confirmed by others but I let you ultimately decide for yourself. What more is there to say?

PHILOSOPHY

-Mutual respect is better than any law.
-Never allow the past to dictate the future.
-Change is not always progress - progress is not always change.
-There is a difference between people who have something to say and those that have to say something.
-It is better to have wasted one's youth than to have
done nothing with it at all.
-I don't know much --- but I do know a few things
about a couple of things.
-You have to walk at all times like you are listening to the soundtrack of your life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hit a few couches in my travels and made a lot of great friends traveling and hosting along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Fished for salmon in Alaska with a fly rod; cross country skied Yellowstone under a Blue Moon in -50 degree below zero weather (ugh!)
