Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to be a positive force in this crazy awesome world
ABOUT ME
They call me the flying monkey, the ginger fairy, the dancing queen, and now in the ROK, crazy, fanta pants...I collect nicknames like hobbies. I hope that means I am memorable and impact people I collide with.
PHILOSOPHY
It's all about gaining perspective. All we touch comes from being the truest and most honest version of ourselves at all times. By fully communicating (beyond the level of words) we can have the fullest impact and understanding.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Swirled wine through my cheeks at vineyards across France. Snowshoed to Italy. Kissed the Blarney stone (as touristy as it gets!). Rode camels in Africa on my birthday (as cliche goals as it gets). Visited free-range Bison living a sustainable and happy life on the reclaimed Kansas Prairie. Made soap from sheep fat. Danced at house parties and festivals alike. Donned a mask and sleeves for a traditional mask dance in Jeonju, South Korea. Had a thousand smiling Korean kids cheer for me like a rockstar on my first day of school. Ate my way across Malaysia ("truly Asia). Got slung in Singapore. Bushwhacked through Borneo in flipflops...
keep it coming please!
