With feet planted on the ground and head amongst the clouds, I look to be a part of the invigorating, everyday dialogues which inspire people to make simple changes with big impact.   Ultimately, each day I aim to become the strongest version of myself and empower others to do the same.

 

I was born and raised in the 'Queen City of New York', formerly known as Buffalo, NY. It was along the shores of Lake Erie, the forests of Algonquin, and the gorges of Ithaca where my curiosity for adventure was fostered into a passion.  Simply for the thrill, it is my need to go the extra step that leads me to these observations about the magic of everyday life.

 

A lot of my work focuses on our environments.  Our context has an enormous influence over the qualitative ways we, as individuals and a collective race, become cultivated and flourish.  I find a great interest in the similarities that can be drawn by the micro and macrocosms of our universe.   

While I graduated from the Humanities School of Ithaca College with a Bachelor of Fine Arts concentrating on studio practices and art history, I remain a student in the many facets of my fascinations.  Whether its growing plants, cooking delicious food, climbing a tree, reading books, drawing celtic knots, practicing yoga, hiking and camping, or engaging in martial arts, I have always sought for the physical and mental challenges associated with hard work.
