i am in love with design.
i am in love with photography.
i go everywhere with my cameras.
i wouldn't go anywhere without my music.
i could happily survive off of cereal and milk.

i think there is a tooth fairy.
i think that santa claus actually exists.
i think vintage is better.
i think secret handshakes are cool.
i think vinyl is better than digital.
i think that the small everyday moments are more incredible than the every once-in-awhile spectacular moments.

i believe that pinky swears still mean something.
i believe in karma.
i believe in the greater good of mankind.
i believe in trying to make a difference.
and i believe that ordinary everyday people
can make extraordinary differences in the world.

i am your oh-so-friendly chapter e-newsletter editor and web content manager. so feel free to drop me a line and say hello or to send news for consideration in future publications.
