About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploration & Creation

ABOUT ME

I'm an artist, a student, a teacher, a dancer, a writer, an aspiring gardener. A dreamer. A sleeper. A bit of a wanderer. I'm seeking authenticity, depth, surprise. I'm currently on a pretty nomadic path and seeking out fun-lovin, art-lovin, earth-lovin kindred spirits on the way.

PHILOSOPHY

Every child has known God,
Not the God of names,
Not the God of don’ts,
Not the God who ever does Anything weird,
But the God who knows only 4 words.
And keeps repeating them, saying:
“Come Dance with Me , come dance.”

-Hafiz

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I had some amazing experiences couchsurfing in Boulder last summer! For now I'm baseless as I'm traveling around the country in my car, and when I settle down in the Pacific Northwest in the coming months I'd love to host :)
