spending a weekend in the swiss alps was incredible. skiing on and paragliding off those mountains!

Teach, Learn, Share

i can teach you how to do tricks with a hula hoop, or how to make said hula hoop. or how to cook super yummy vegetarian food. or how to take an old piece of clothing and make it into something new and more awesome. i can tell you about theatre lighting, and concert lighting, and event production.
