About Me
I garden, play mandolin, play drums, search for cool rocks, and make to many puns. I enjoy tinkering and modifying things. My love for the natural world tempers and guides my interactions with the modern and technological. I am a poet at heart, in conflict with my poems being silent duets or choirs. A song of blossoming expressions that reveal our potentials together through practice and reflection. I seek to become a master of such poetry.
