About Me:

I grew up in the sprawling exurbs of Florida in a seaside town marked by the nearby Air Force base and NASA launch facility. I have since lived in Indiana, DC, France, Haiti, and Mexico. Everywhere I go there are good, dedicated people ready to do their part. I hope to keep meeting more of these people and organizing with them.

I currently work on a grassroots movement to change US foreign policy in a more peaceful, cooperative, and diplomatic direction, so that it can serve the interests of all of us, not just a powerful minority. If you're interested, check out my website.
