ABOUT ME

Kinda dorky and weird. Been called Barbara Walters. You'll be telling me all your secrets in no time. But I'll respect them.

PHILOSOPHY

"We have to be ferociously and single-mindedly dedicated to the cause of beauty and truth and love even as we keep our imaginations wild and hungry and free. We have to be both disciplined and rowdy...We can inspire each other to perpetrate healing mischief, friendly shocks, compassionate tricks, irreverent devotion, holy pranks, playful experiments, and crazy wisdom."
-Rob Brezsny
