About Me

I am more grateful now then ever before.to name a few: my strength my woman my family friendship realization peace music teaching grad school my cats my travels foreign affairs Albert Camus Henry Miller Shunryu Suzuki fitness free market capitalism socialism Zen life food crap food Qi-Gong the occult all my tribulations for suffering comedy for quality drama Ritchie Hawtin Ken Wilber For Dr. Jubb, pre-Jenny for Owen O'Connor for wildlife nature the French for Israel NYC California PBS skiing the outdoors culture and many other things...I have been playing the bass since I was 12. I was born a bass player. I am most passionate about electric bass and upright bass. I went to Manhattan School of Music-- Prep division throughout high school. I continued at Sarah Lawrence College. I also like to act. Since 2000 I have been on disability, welfare, read approx. 5 million pages of books, played music, traveled, and have battled Hodgkin's Disease all along the way. Although music is in my blood, I shall never cease playing, there is a great world out there that I cannot turn my back on....too much going on and too much to give. I will have my masters in Education in May, am getting married in June. I woke up one morning within the past couple years and realized that it was time to make peace with the inner demons. I checked myself into therapy just for fun. This has been one of my best investments thus far. Through the interior exploration, emotional, physical, and spiritual I find myself to live a more prominent journey then I had ever anticipated.
