About me

I'm a traveler and a recovering hippie, student of the world that never graduated college living on the lam. I play the alto sax and ashiko drum, and am writing constantly. I often get involved in environmental causes, and have worked with Greenpeace, the Sierra Club, the Energy Action Coalition, and a few local groups.

Interests

Music

,I am totally stoked that Umphrey's McGee and Sound Tribe Sector 9 are touring together this summer.,

Travel

,I've been all over western Europe,plus Morocco and Argentina. I'm also half-Canadian,so I go up there a lot. I love going on road trips across America.,

It is a live proposal that has been sent to an organization based in Africa that is looking for a candidate to use a budget set aside for sustainability for African Farmers. I have applied for 'the job'. I would be quite happy though if they just used the information in a constructive sustainable way. Shall keep you briefed and thanks for the comment.
