CURRENT MISSION

to challenge myself and seek inspiration

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the mountains and consequently have a love of all outdoors and outdoor adventuring. I am usually restless and eager for travel, even if its just a short road trip. I love pushing myself and throwing myself into uncomfortable situations. I don't take anything too seriously. I'm laid back and easy to get along with. I love learning whether its theoretical philosophy, molecular neuroscience, or how a clock works. I'm terrible at the guitar and ukulele but love playing.

PHILOSOPHY

constantly unsteady and changing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've watched barrages of shooting stars while falling asleep on the beaches of the Greek Isles. Simple and amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

well, I can teach you how to juggle and probably more than you want to know about psychology.

I'd love to learn how to play any obscure musical instrument.
