CURRENT MISSION

Live. Love. Learn. Drink Chai.

ABOUT ME

"There is a universal language, understood by everybody, but already forgotten. I am in search of that universal language, among other things."

My career requires no degree. It comes without a salary. It started the day I was born and will continue until my last breath is taken. I deal in the trade of knowledge and experience. My work and my currency are one in the same.

I aspire to be a nomad, to be poor financially and rich relationally, to live life to it's fullest potential.

I've yet to find anything that excites me as much as learning something new. Feed my curiosity and you'll become my best friend.

I thoroughly enjoy reading, but a good conversation will blow any book out of the water. Engage me.

I'm supremely interested in people's beliefs on life and death.

I dropped out of college to get an education. I have no desire for a degree and am even less attracted to the idea of a career. Economics should not be an incentive for acquiring knowledge, nor should it prevent anyone from receiving an education.

I am a passionatly curious, self-motivated, autodidactic scholar.

I have no set plan for my life. I like to stay flexible; you never know what opportunities are going to present themselves.

PHILOSOPHY

Respect and compassion.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a bibliophile. Give me a book and I'll read it.
Some favorites include: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, The Great Gatsby, Sputnik Sweetheart, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, and Jitterbug Perfume.
I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music, but I'm a total sucker for jazz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was born. I think that's pretty amazing when you get down to the statistical improbability of it all

Teach, Learn, Share

I could spend hours discussing philosphy, literature, film, linguistics, theology, shit... just about anything really. All perspectives are important and I'm just as egar to learn as I am to share.
