ABOUT ME

I am a community organizer, dreamer, and learner.

Here is a film I helped make about a community bike shop I helped found:

I also like to get people to stop driving cars as frequently, and switch to travel that doesn't create as much pollution, use as much energy, or kill as many people. I ended up in the following commercial for this reason:

But most of all I like conversation and play of all kinds, and cooking and eating and dancing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen a lot of amazing things in my life, but I am kind of simple deep down.

My friends and I discovered this incredible fruit tree, at night, having never encountered this fruit before and not knowing its name. It was like giant succulent blackberries that tasted like nothing else I had ever eaten before, growing on a tree with giant grape leaves. The flavor was so exquisite, the juices of the fruit dripping down our fingers! We gorged ourselves on this incredible new discovery. We discovered the next day it was Mulberry. Without names, we can know the true nature of things more deeply and appreciate what they really are.

Many many times I have sat watching the sunset from within a Redwood tree with a friend and fruit to share. This has never been anything less than the most awe-inspiring experience, again and again. I love to be high above the ground, whether on a hill or in a tree, watching the sun rise or set, or just watching the world go by...
