CURRENT MISSION

I want to learn everything. I strive to improve the world. Some of my bigger projects are my wilderness education startup - I want to get people connected to nature. And the non profit I am a founder of/secretary of, which puts on free workshops on a variety of topics.

ABOUT ME

I am allergic to furry creatures :( which is good to know about if I am staying somewhere.
I have studied botanical (plant medicine) and healing for years, and am now a professional welder. I love to read, and I love to ask questions.

I like people. I love the wilderness. LGBTQ friendly. I like learning to live with very minimal amounts of things, and minimal amounts of money.

I want to help the world in any way that I can. I seek to improve myself, and spread good will, happiness and healthiness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My life is best explained in chapters. In my late teens I went out on the road for a while hitch-hiking and riding trains. I came back and moved out of my parent's place into a tipi in the woods (near town, with supplies). When I slowed down with travelling I moved every year, I have lived in...7? towns and cities in Canada. I've been in Edmonton for 5ish years now. Doing the career thing and I have a startup business in Wilderness education as well as being one of the founders of a nonprofit for free workshops.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to volunteer, teach, read, cook, garden, knit, build, be outside, practice wilderness living skills.
