About Me

CURRENT MISSION

helping good to overcome evil, and really great hair days

ABOUT ME

Young artist seeking rich, vibrant, socially-responsible, creatively-engaging experiences every day.

I currently live in the sunny land of Alabama in southeast United States.
I studied dance performance and choreography in school, and have since been making bizarre and exciting dance/art happenings with my very talented friends.

I feel my best when it is warm outside, when I am making something with my hands, when my body is moving, when I've had a solid cup of coffee, when there are animals nearby, when I am sharing company with people who are thrilled to be alive and aren't taking themselves too damn seriously.

Currently, I have an affinity for black and white line tattoos, summer peaches, picking berries on friends' farms, shotgunning beers on porches, listening to the loud groan of cicadas at night, searching for all the waterfalls in my state, dancing in warehouses, midnight bowling, and fish tacos. I'll try most anything once and chances are good I'll try it again just to be sure I feel the same way about it.
Things I want in my life: a good road bike, new friends to explore with, more tattoos, music playing skills, cooking skills, farming skills, sunrises in countries I've never been too, a sleepover in a treehouse, a full moon bonfire.

Looking rill forward to meeting you

PHILOSOPHY

I am constantly creating the world I wish to live in in every moment.
Generally I'm working to get more aligned with the infinite magic that is this Universe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Mt. Emei and Mt. Hua in China, two Buddhist and Daoist holy mountains. Asia is fascinating and I will forever be drawn to a land that is so completely dissimilar from the world I grew up in.
