Hope leads to quiet desperation when reality obscures the dream
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I've been a raw foodist for 7 years now. I have made it a point to research and educate others on this healthy lifestyle, and my path is constantly renewing and invigorating me on a daily basis.
My current occupation is Academic Dean at a business college in Jacksonville, FL. I am currently doing research on a book about the raw food movement and all of its beautiful participants. This site has been a godsend, and I am constantly renewed by the participation of this community at large.
Furthermore, I welcome all types of contact from any of those wonderful people who care to reach out and say "hello". I am friendly and I choose not to bite ;-0
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- This community exists, and for that I am grateful. I could rant and rave about my individualistic/collectivist theories until I am blue in the ears. I shall not do so in this format based on enusing boredom that would hamper the reader.
- Relationship Status:
- Single
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- Almond breaded/curry dusted coconut "white fish", over a spiced red broth, garlic-rosemary "potatoes", topped with a mango/grape tomato salsa
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- Educating, writing, heavy metal/jazz/new age, the New York Mets, snowboarding, reading, financial planning, traveling. I have travel plans for 2009, and I would welcome the opportunity to meet with fellow raw foodists to join for intelligent discussion, good food, and kindred spirits (the non-alcoholic kind of spirits)
Itinerary, 2009:
11/09/09 - 11/10/09: Columbia, SC
11/23/09 - 11/30/09: Portland, OR
12/02/09 - 12/06/09: Las Vegas, NV
*note: Fates Warning was absolutely incredible :-) Portland, OR has always been on my radar, so I am looking forward to heading out there, and even visit some friends. In December, my college has graciously nominated me for their Circle of Excellence in Las Vegas!! There's 2 raw cafes in Vegas, so I'm looking forward to it :-)
- Favorite Books or Authors:
- Atlas Shrugged - Ayn Rand
- In the Absence of the Sacred - Jerry Mander
- We Talk, You Listen & God Is Red both by Vine Deloria
- Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas - Tom Robbins
- Become Younger - Dr. Norman Walker
- The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress & The Number of the Beast - Robert Heinlein
- Favorite Quote:
- "Life is a race between bankruptcy court and death ...... with the lucky ones hitting death first - George Orwell
- Facebook Profile:

- GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : )
- Yes! I accept the GI2MR Oath.
