CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a middle school English teacher in a dual language program. I write whenever I can (poetry, articles). I spend as much time outdoors as possible, skiing, fly-fishing, hiking etc. Besides that, I'm very social and love to spend time at the local tap-room trying out the newest IPA. My reply rate would be perfect but I got a creepy request from some dude trying to track someone down so I laid low for a while but I'm back and ready to host!

PHILOSOPHY

Be honest with yourself and what's really important.

oh, boy...lots. I'm a big fan of Italo Calvino, Denise Levertov, Li-Young Lee, Donald Miller, Paul Tillich.

Music? I'm just going to mention Beirut 'cause not everyone's heard of them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
