About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be as I am

ABOUT ME

Since I graduated last year from University I've been walking the road less traveled. Not sacrificing what I feel, for doing what the world would say is a track to success. I don't have any plans, but I'm not afraid, everywhere I go, every moment I'm in turns out to be more beautiful than I could have imagined. I'm interested in truly seeing people, moving into the frontiers of connection.

PHILOSOPHY

Love, and nothing matters. Its a fun video game though. I think he "reality" that we are living in is a creation of the human mind and exists because the majority of people buy into it. I think the truth is in the energy that flows between and connects everything. What a beautiful thing it is to become aware of this flow, which I think is love.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've biked from Central Oregon to Southern California, 1000 miles by myself down the coast. Awesome trip.
A 10 day solo raft trip in the remote Brooks Range in northern Alaska.

Teach, Learn, Share

At this point in my life I have way more to learn than to teach, but I feel like I have many experiences under my belt that I can share with people, and I've learned many things that I'd love to share with people. I love learning by anything the person I'm talking to is passionate about.
