ABOUT ME

I'm 26, and have never left North America, though I hope to do some traveling after I finish my degree. I tend towards poetry, digital audio production, independent thinking/thinkers, philosophy, am drawn to the absurd. I love a good debate but also the silence between a few good fiction pages.

I'm also a RYT yoga instructor, ordained minister, and photographer, and I love sharing with others possessing an interest in learning/teaching about any of these. Should a potential host/guest like to do yoga, a photoshoot, or ramble about death/god/meaning, I'm always up for it.
