Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Making the world a more accepting place. LGBTQI :)
ABOUT ME
I don't like putting other people in boxes, so I find it hard to do it to myself... I like waking up and being excited about the fact that I am alive. wild places. adventuring. summer. big trees. making movies which are out of left field.
Community and artistic collaboration.
PHILOSOPHY
Earth without art is just Eh.
I believe that humans have many shared qualities, desires, pleasures and sufferings. I believe that there is less than six degrees of separation and people generally enjoy sharing and understanding others.
I like listening to people and really connecting and understanding their world.
