CURRENT MISSION

to surround myself with strong, inspiring, and wonderful people

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Northern California, and after a few years in New York and Seattle, I'm heading back to the bay area. I just finished up my MSW and am trying to figure out what's next. I like to get goofy, cook, drink beer, and listen to live music. I have strong convictions and think critically about the world, about patterns of violence and ways to interrupt them. I love sharing stories with new people!

PHILOSOPHY

"And if we do act, in however small a way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory" - Howard Zinn
