I do:
Professional development in place-based education // independent curriculum consulting // vintage and used outdoor equipment appraisal and sales // grant writing // leadership training // writing (albeit poorly) // partnership forming.
I love:
my wife // the outdoors // biking // my dogs // building things from wood // teaching others // making a difference in the communities I work within // changing the status quo.
