I am an active human being in pursuit of a healthier self-sufficient earth, and better democratic processes for our nation.

I have worked to create organizations and tools within an atmosphere of self-sustainability and independence from the growing impact of worldwide corporate power. I believe that decision-making should not be the exclusive right of the privileged. That those who are affected by policy _ should be heard in all debates.

I am interested in reframing the debate of the issues within society: distribution of wealth, abuse of power and rights of the natural world, environment and need to consider a constitutional amendment in which all decisions are considered in light of their impact on the seventh generation.
