CURRENT MISSION

Slow down and focus on enjoying every moment to its fullest.

ABOUT ME

I'm transitioning to a more conscious lifestyle where I try to harmonize with my environment and engender as much positivity as I can. I have fallen in love with Chinese medicine and Taoist philosophy and am slowly integrating it into my life style. In school I studied theatre and graphic design so I come from an artistic background and embrace the art of existence.

PHILOSOPHY

Gratitude and compassion are the best virtues to propagate in your life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm studying Chinese medicine, acupressure and taiji chuan (tai chi), I can cook some mean cuisine, I do digital imaging and photography work and I play Celtic flute/whistle. All these skills are up for grabs if we hang out.
