About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To impact the lives of others as much as they have impacted mine

ABOUT ME

I am a person of many interests and always keep an open mind. For the past couple years I've been traveling around working as a photographer, an educator, and an environmentalist. I enjoy listening to music and going to concerts. I've been training in mixed martial arts for several years and sometimes compete. In spite of my violent sport I am a very peaceful person. I enjoy having deep philosophical conversations with people.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to think I can help improve peoples lives and help open their minds. I always try to take the peaceful route. I never feel complete and want to always keep growing and learning.
