CURRENT MISSION

People wish to be settled. Only insofar as they are unsettled is there any hope for them.

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty hip. I also use the word, "hip" without irony. I like blue skies as much as I like thunderstorms. I haven't been very far from where I grew up, and I like to fix that whenever and however possible. We should be friends.

PHILOSOPHY

This is much better as a conversation.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book varies, but right now, I love The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two words: Every. Day.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can knit very well. I also know a lot about the history of ideas. I'm a good discussion facilitator, and this is a skill I love passing on to others. I'm also an outreach educator by trade, so teaching people to be less judgmental, more open-hearted, and more sensitive to the unspoken needs of others (especially those in distress or crisis) is sort of my thing!
