About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to learn as much as I can about the Berlin contemporary art scene.

ABOUT ME

I just got back from a huge trip in Europe and about to start another semester at school. If you are ever in the Twin cities area, I am close and have a couch in the small city of River Falls Wisconsin, which is a 30 minute drive from the cities.
I love life, an advocate of all of the arts, I am in love with music, print making, drawing, basically any inspiring idea, conversation, breathing, tasting, hearing and seeing. I think laughter is one of the most important parts of living and I like to think that I have a good sense of humor. I love to meet genuine people who believe in new ideas and thoughts.
I am in love with new music across all genres. Here is a recent list of new music that I have been listening to: http://hypem.com/#/osspo777
I also enjoy playing the saxophone and the piano.
I am in Berlin from September 9th-Novermber 8th. I will be studying the history and highlights of the contemporary art scene. I would really appreciate anyone contacting me that has experience in that scene. Plus, I love to meet other artists with new ideas.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in having a free spirit. I am open to all religions, races, beliefs, and thoughts. Love Life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once stayed a week on a native american reservation and did teaching lodges and ceremonial practices. My experiences there changed my life forever.

I went to Norway and saw where my Great grandfather grew up. Pretty amazing.

I studied contemporary art in Berlin, met some really amazing artists and museum workers. Such a great experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a huge collector and lover of music. I also love to talk about the arts, I could talk about print making or photography for hours. I am also very interested in talking about the little things in life.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Czech Republic, France, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden
