CURRENT MISSION

To learn, contribute, and grow as much as possible and to create a global community worldwide!

ABOUT ME:

I am a positive burst of joy that loves meeting new people and connecting on a deeper level. I'm nuts for fitness, dance, meditation, yoga, music, nature, dark chocolate, and NUTS!
I'm a hypnotherapist, NLP practitioner, a healer, a personal trainer, and a power and laughter yoga instructor.

I've spent several years of his life traveling and couch surfing is just one of those amazing ways to keep the travel alive, the friendships flowing, whilst learning new cultures.

I'm always looking for a warm community where I can contribute positively, learn new skill sets, and continue with my own personal growth. A bit of meditation and dance can't ever hurt too!

I come complete with TONS of great stories to share and healing hugs that go with them. I'd love to meet any cool friends engrossed within cultures across the globe and anyone else on a mission for peace. Your kindness will be paid forward. With love, gracious joy, and HEAPS OF LAUGHTER - KOL (like Cole)

Let's be kind and create a beautiful life together!

I saw the sun rise at Mt. Batur in Bali standing in a bath of hot steam from the active volcano.

I gave a nanosymposium lecture on my Master's Thesis "Genetic Predisposition for Hypnotic Susceptibility" at the world's greatest neuroscience conference in Washington D.C.

I became a Certified Medical Support Clinical Hypnotherapist and opened my own private clinic and helped change people's lives, to include a collaboration with the local oncology ward.

I became a certified laughter yoga leader and started my own club at HSU called "Humboldt's Laughter Revolution" - check it out on Youtube! But beware.. It may cause an intense desire for sillyness - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lm4YzNA3HlI
