CURRENT MISSION

To explore as much of this stunningly diverse planet in the short time I have the privilege to be here

ABOUT ME

I'm a Pacific Northwester determined to see as much of the world as I can while I still have the personal and professional flexibility to do so. I work as a writer and researcher with directors and producers all around the world. Love talking politics but completely understand those who hate doing so.

PHILOSOPHY

The late, great Roger Ebert said it best:

I believe that if, at the end of it all, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try.
