I’m fired up on social justice issues and environmental conservation. Photography and writing along those lines too.

I want to make a difference by treating the world with respect, others with compassion and my dreams with diligence.

Be sure to check out akimbo’s Matador profile.

Favorite books: The Irresistible Revolution by Shane Claiborne, The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, Life of Pi by Yann Martel, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, The Kite Runner & A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
