About Me

I was born and raised on the south fork of the Coquille River in Coos County, Oregon. My father's side of the family moved there a year before Oregon became a state.
Currently living in Damascus, OR, I'm working for the rights of local farmers and private citizens.
I'm an open minded individual who usually doesn't try to push my views on other people and wishes that they would give me the same respect. I'm open to friendly debates and sharing of perspectives. If I'm pushed, I will push back.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

All types of respectful, thoughtful people. I would love to share poetry with other writers. I would be willing to look at other artists' work and share my opinions. Anyone from Myrtle Point that still remembers me should give me a holler.
If you're a farmer from Damascus and you have had any negative run ins with the city or county, please contact me with all information on the subject.
