About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to connect. to affect. to inspire. to create. to love.

ABOUT ME

love! hard. strong. love! a smile. inviting a stranger in. caressing the emptiness of your departure. titillating those around you. friendship. sex. mama's enpanadas. pan de queso. i think the world would be a better place if we all took the time to really let people in and give of ourselves. the look of her aging hands in the molcajete. listening to papis cumbias. hearing that little chirping bird on a saturday morning. the first bite of that oh so sweet, you're not supposed to have it. creating. inspiring with pictures and movement and sounds. oh the sounds of creation. words circling the air creating pockets of energy. waiting to explode. imagining all the possibilities and then making them happen. this inner me. feet in the grass. smiling tenderness. unashamed to be...anything.

i still choose to believe that we are free
that we don't need the rules to see
that despite what we've done, we're not alone
we're closer than we think to home

call it...whatever you want
i don't want your names
all i need is to feel it
inside of me
pulsing out of my scalp in hues
smiling through the tears

oh no, i'm not there yet.
of course not.
but i believe
we never truly arrive.
so it doesn't matter.
here and now is all there is.

my reality is here
and it's beautiful

PHILOSOPHY

live simply
love fully
hug often
dream big
believe always

Music, Movies, and Books

Amelie. Me and You and Everyone we Know. listen to your heartbeat. the music lies within. Miranda July stories are amazing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

my play is currently still being written. i'm going to need another pen.

Teach, Learn, Share

we must learn to fight for what we belive in. we are the future. you are a part of me and me of you. we must learn to love. even when we hate, we must love. let in the darkness and transform it.
