About Me

i love sunscreen-stickied hikes through sonoma county country side, getting sore and breathing deep, then driving home and washing off all the sweat and dirt. i like to make up music and lyrics. i press hard on simple chords and the strum away sad feelings. i like frozen yogurt and strong iced coffee on days when the sun shines hot and bright. i love a good novel, and welcome open-minded conversation. i want to live in a manner that positively impacts the environment and communicates love to the people i encounter.
