"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately, I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, To put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die discover that I had not lived" -Henry David Thoreau (from the movie "Dead Poet's Society" and slightly different from Thoreau's actual quote.)___________________________________________I am many things. I am here. I am an intellectual. I am passionate and creative. I am fierce and instinctive. I am a lover of life who is never afraid to persevere. I protect those that I love. I outwait, outwit, outrun, and outlast whatever bedevils me. I draw doors where there are none and pass through. I am modern and hip...ancient and aboriginal. I am here.__________________________________________Welcome to my page. You might hear just about ANY kind of music while you're here...my taste in music is wildly eclectic. While I'm an extremely positive intellectual, you may hear some hard core music on my page. If you wonder why, do ask...I'd love to fill you in. ________________________________________I'm an Anthropologist by degree. I adore just about anything scientific. I have an amazing job with a beautiful institution where I work with Science education, animals, and a little Paleontology. I love studying cultures around the world and have a deep fascination with Primatology (completed two internships conducting behavioral research on and caring for Great Apes)...a true lover of nature and wildlife. I try my hand at poetry every now and again and plan to write and produce radio documentaries in the near future. I've can definitely say that I've had some very interesting and unusual life experiences. I'm ecstatic about the path i'm on in my life. It's been an exceedingly rough path at many points but a truly fascinating one at just as many points. So...here I am...somewhat jaded but still driven by the beauty of it all. ___________________________________________I can be a serious and intense person...a master strategist when under fire...but playful/goofy/flighty are a big part of my mix. I have a VERY strong moral compass and have a deep respect for people that follow their hearts and dreams...those that are powerful enough to be about it. _________________________________________Feel free to message me...let me know you were here. In the meantime, I wish you Peace and Power.
