About Me

CURRENT MISSION

work in medicine around the world

ABOUT ME

I can talk with anyone at length, and learn from them, and I open up pretty easily to strangers. I love the ocean, mountains, music, yoga, just walking and taking it all in. I have a pretty wicked sense of humor, but I don't unleash it until I know you well - don't want to offend! In my work, I love empowering others with knowledge, and I love working with my hands.

PHILOSOPHY

1. the golden rule: treat others as you would like to be treated. 2. Scouts: take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints. 3. it is up to each of us as an individual to create our own happiness.
