People tell me I have a "natural" presence. I'm never trying to be anything, except maybe a better me.

I decided a while back to leave the corporate world, move to the country and do a little experiment: only do what I love, simplify, and see if my standard of living improved by doing less of what we consider "day-to-day routines." To my amazement, the experiment worked better than I thought, and makes me a generally happier person. It's not always perfect, but I feel like I have higher quality problems now, and I'm able to pass on that light-heartedness and ease to others, or at least that's the intention.

I like to spend time in the mountains and when I have the time to do it, I'm a wood sculptor. I make negative space abstract sculptures and bowls. I also love to travel and work on my property in the country.
