CURRENT MISSION

be mindful: listen, look, learn, live, love. also to receive enough CS Vouches to thank my CS hosts.

ABOUT ME

I'm someone who tries to make the best of what I see and help whoever I can. Films and music move me. I'm not trained but like to dance. Sports and hiking are also favs. Work-wise, I've been with Movember on their campaign since 2011 - for Canada three years and one in Hong Kong. Have volunteered extensively, including a stint that was 9 straight months with Katimavik, and would like to make the world at least a little better while having a good time too.

PHILOSOPHY

high on life
have fun doing good
