CURRENT MISSION

Currently making networks for queers in the West Puget Sound area meet each other and connect over activities that they enjoy. Would love to host people in Bremerton if they need it, and look forward to surfing in Seattle with my sweetie.

ABOUT ME

Live in Bremerton, WA with my sweetie, where we are starting up Queer Kitsap, an organization for queers of all stripes in Kitsap County to meet and connect. Right now our main even is WERQ: a Queer Dance Party that takes place at the Hi-Fidelity Lounge in Bremerton every 4th Friday of the month. I'm also a volunteer adult facilitator at the Kitsap county Q Youth Center. In my spare time, I produce independent features (what I went to school for) which at the moment means trying to sell the last movie I made. I also work freelance in the film industry. Around here that mostly means reality T.V. shows. I have bikes that I used to ride all the time while living in Las Vegas, and have been sitting in the basement since I moved to WA in March (for shame). My sweetie and I are queer parents to a very affectionate chihuahua and a very shy tabby cat.

PHILOSOPHY

Being kind, positive, and optimistic, learn as much as possible.
