ABOUT ME

I am fascinated by people, their interests and interactions. I enjoy intellectually stimulating conversations over wine, coffee, tea, margaritas or beermosas (ghetto version of mimosa). I love the outdoors, birds, trees, plants, rivers; I study owls in the western slope of the Cascades.

PHILOSOPHY

I value connection with others, connection with nature and the natural world. I love sharing thoughts and food and adventures.
