About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To love. To laugh. To dance. To experience with no expectations. To eat chocolate and drink tea. To merge creative arts with enviro humanitarian work!

ABOUT ME

In attempt to encapsulate the infinite, a paragraph does little justice.

I am on a journey within myself and beyond this atomistic, humanly conceived world. I am so grateful to be alive and a part of this existence!

I travel to put my own life in perspective, break down the buildup of habitual thoughts and the comfortableness of routine life, throw in a bit of chaos, spontaneity, and adventure.

I love circus and dancing arts. I help organize circus events in Austin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqOmhkK8xk0&feature=related

Movement activities I enjoy- hooping, fire hooping, partner acrobatics, salsa, tribal, contemporary, street jazz, festival dancing, portuguese psytrance dance, drum circles, interpretive, contact improv, stomping, banging, flowing, crying, expressing.

While I dance I cannot judge, I cannot hate, I cannot separate myself from life. I can only be joyful and whole. -Hans

I am Raw/Vegan/Vegetarian. Respecting another's life is more important than satisfying the palate. I try hard to overpower the anthropocentrism plaguing humanity.

I like to create art, design costumes, make tea, eat chocolate, visualize positivity, flow with the universize, and live in spontaneity.

On a daily basis I actively underminine corporate America and scope out ways to end the war on the poor and promote cosmological rehabilitation...

ask me about it. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Don't take life too seriously. You'll never escape it alive anyway.

"Without the possibility of death, adventure is not possible." - From a man after he came back from Everest with a completely frostbitten face.

Visualize the world I want to live in, and then create it.

laugh
live with intention
follow your excitement
play with abandon
choose with no regrets
just be
simplify
question reality
listen hard
dance naked
well just be naked
practice wellness
experience with no expectations
laugh.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Medicine plant ceremonies in Peru.

Burning Man and Circus community.

Blessed by a shaman on his holy mat while another tied his penis around a bamboo pole and another stood on top of it.

Taught dance lessons to hundreds of little children at a spiritual learning school in India.

A family of 5 on a moped. priceless.

A delirium triggered labyrinth of never-ending changing patterns and light.

Lightning in a Bottle

Teach, Learn, Share

A day without laughter is a day wasted.

Live below the surface and experience what is real.
