CURRENT MISSION

to learn, express and manifest

ABOUT ME

I just graduated with an environmental policy degree in the Pacific NW in Bellingham, Washington.

I am an outgoing, person that is constantly looking improve the ideas and concepts in my head. I love to think and converse and better yet to manifest my ideas to affect the world around me.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is the one entity that is you and me. we should be humbled by our ignorance while not being limited by it. I am here for you, who is me. Live life lost in lust, loneliness, laughter and LOVE.
"Love is the way and Law is what makes the way possible." -(Ernest Holmes)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i have recovered from 8 hospitalizations due to asthma and am grateful for everyday that i am able to use my legs and respiratory system. breathing and walking are something many take for granted, they do not know what it is to live without these two simple pleasures. not having my health for a good portion of my youth has shaped my awareness of self, has made me very grateful for my life and has pushed me to the bounds of my bodies physical abilities.

Teach, Learn, Share

i can do handstand balancing yoga-type moves and i would love to either teach, learn or do balancing with someone. i am good at Football (not American football) (my father is english). i love economics and thinking up solutions to our current problems (talk, teach, learn). i can cook and bake like amazing (vegan possibilities). i was a gardener/landscaper for a few years.

I can also whistle with my hands and can do some throat singing.

I also write stories and philosophy.
