CURRENT MISSION

To do as little damage in life as possible

ABOUT ME

I would consider myself a pretty open person, open to people and new experiences. I have tried a lot of things like piano, French, riding horses, fixing roofs and white water rafting, but not kept with anything long enough to really get good. I have a lot of personal goals for myself and hopefully plenty of time to do it all. If I have any regret in life it is not seeing enough things through to their end. I recently graduated with a BA in Creative Writing and will be moving to Boulder in January to pursue my MFA in Poetics. Hopefully this will take me some place unique and fulfilling.

PHILOSOPHY

I live because I try to be a good person on a day to day basis and feel that good people should never stop living and trying to change the world. We have a long way to go as a species and every good faith effort to change the world through example is needed.
