CURRENT MISSION

To positively contribute as much as I can wherever I can in the most joyful playful manner that I can.

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Minneapolis and I love the city vibe, although my soul always feels most at peace in the spaciousness of the country air. Working with youth, peacebuilding, and cooperative structures fuels me. I may have been a mermaid in a past life, because there is nothing that makes me happier than being sumerged in the water...well dancing, exploring, reading, loving, enjoying meals together and sharing heart to heart are a few of my other favorite pastimes.

PHILOSOPHY

Much is expected from those to whom much is given.
Shine it on.

Music, Movies, and Books

A few of my favorite books are 'The 5th Sacred Thing,by Starhawk', 'Jitterbug Perfume,by Tom Robbins', and 'Translations of Rumi by Coleman Barks'.
I love the movies 'Willow', 'Ronia the Robber's Daughter', and 'Princess Mononoke'.
I love any music that you can feel in your body, and even more so if it has a positive message.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camped at the foot of Mayan pyramids in Belize.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing meals, playing in our garden, biking around town, yoga, seeing live music, and making art. I also love to speak Spanish, and if people bring music in to my home I'd be so thankful!
