I am inspired, compassionate, and playful.

My Self-Summary

I do my best to be present, enjoy life and maybe make life a bit better for people I meet along the way. I dance wildly, subtly, reverently, irreverently, passionately, and just about every way I can manage. I like to spin on the beach until I'm dizzy. I breathe in patterns to take myself to stillness, bliss or trance. I use biofeedback and other creative technologies to expand my consciousness. I enjoy exploring my multifaceted nature. I love creative erotic touch. I love connecting with people intimately, on the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual levels, as well as the physical.

You can frequently find me walking on beaches or in forests, dancing somewhere, training people to be more conscious through biofeedback, breathing, mindfulness, etc., giving massage, receiving massage, sitting at my computer, rolling on the floor stretching subtly, hanging upside down, or hanging out talking and snuggling with friends.

I am passionate about building community. I like bringing people together for fun, mutual support and increased awareness. I am passionate about creating social and economic change. I see the enormity of what needs to be done in order to create a sustainable society and I have the audacity to believe that I can do something substantial to make that happen.

I am a Neuroscientist. I sometimes seem to experience oneness with all that is. Putting these things together makes for some interesting and unusual beliefs and perspectives. I might share them with you if you are not careful! I sometimes love to talk about the nature of reality, although I clearly know nothing about it. Other times I think it's just silly.

I love to play. I love my work. I love to co-create a culture of enhanced consciousness. These three things are not necessarily separate.

What I’m doing with my life

Building a biofeedback business, learning to be more compassionate, making friends, dancing, writing songs, learning to play guitar, healing myself and helping others to heal, building community, developing a practice that is a fusion of Tantra and biofeedback. learning about how to run a non-profit corporation, researching and writing about consciousness expansion.

I’m really good at

listening, massage, creative thought, dancing, knowing what needs to be done next, helping people to heal and grow

The six things I could never do without

This is a very silly qustion

I spend a lot of time thinking about

my business, my relationships, the environment, the human nervous system, consciousness, how to bring more joy to the world, food, going dancing, sex, the physiology of psychedelic states, How to compassionately help people to wake up and join in the creation of a new culture.

On a typical Friday night I am

Lately I tend to be dancing

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

With all the networking I do and people I know, I still sometimes feel clueless at parties. Want to know anything else? Just ask.

You should message me if

You want to go out dancing. You want to work together to build a new culture, which focuses on meeting peoples genuine needs. You want to go for a hike. You want to play on the beach. You want to play Illuminati or Settlers or some other cool game. You want to dance around a fire. You know an amazing camp at Burning Man that I must join. You give an awesome massage. You want to talk about biofeedback. You know some way of expanding consciousness that I may not have tried yet. You want to build conscious community. You are interested in exploring the nature or physiology of tantric, psychedelic, or meditative states. You want a deeply intimate, transparent relationship.
