About Me

CURRENT MISSION

connecting the dots between fate and freewill

ABOUT ME

The most subtle things impact me, like a hidden voice singing opera in the center of venice, while pigeon 'coos' compete at St. Mark's around the corner. People leave fingerprints on me with the suggestion of their presence--- I want to absorb and express it all. the spaces between the words often echo much more than the oceans we pour into them.

PHILOSOPHY

"All love, art and passionate work are an attempt to re-discover the moments in which our hears first opened."
