About Me

I have the best friends in the world for which I'm truly thankful. Each day is an exciting adventure leaving me awestruck and hopeful for the future. Because I believe the most powerful weapon on earth is a human soul on fire, I strive to be a spiritual arsonist. I am a truth seeker, peaceMAKER, ACTIVIST, intellectual fire starter, complacency vanquisher, passionate lover of humanity, solid like a breeze, air mixed with fire, warm and loyal friend, unbending warrior for liberty, and child of God. Servant to all, slave to none. ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ .............Recently, I've been blessed with opportunities to work with several amazing groups... some of which are the Sustainable Food Center, Mother Teresa's Missions of Charity in Kolkata, India, Common Ground Katrina Relief, the revolutionary Soul of Creation group, the Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance, and People Not Profit... make
