About Me

CURRENT MISSION

improve things here in case the apocalypse doesn't happen

ABOUT ME

i'm into working with people to change systems that are oppressive- right now working with inner-city youth to stop them from being criminalized in public schools, and to offer alternatives.

PHILOSOPHY

my general philosophy is that people are mostly good, and i generally trust folks from the beginning and am so happy when I can build that trust and friendship.
