I'm an urban raised science geek turned nature loving soul-searcher. I've worked my way through A LOT of school my whole life . . . I'm just finishing up a PhD in Neurobiology . . . and love to talk almost anything science. And I've spent the last few years learning how much more there is to life beyond studying and working and planning for the future. I've been exploring more and more of both my external and internal world . . . and love to hear and share life philosophies and experiences.
