Finding Zen in the Northside

What have I been up to, you ask? A WHOLE LOT!

I recently found my calling to work on community gardens in the North St. Louis community, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to answer that call. The amount of beauty and growth that I have experienced first-hand, in a matter of only 5 weeks, is indescribable.

Be the change you want to see in the world


First time chat on Nyoombl (pronounced nimble)! I want to have more of these concise 7-minute conversations, I feel we can learn so much from each other in 1-on-1 dialogues like these. Thanks Nate Anton for your interest in Kyle's and my philosophy, your innovative journalism inspires me to take similar action. I enjoy discussing my life with people so they can be inspired to do something in their own personal Universe.

#OperationBeautifySTL



Shortly after our wedding, we decided to re-evaluate our original plans to head to the West Coast. We weren’t able to find a host who was able to accommodate a couple and their dog, and there was no way we would be able to leave our Buddy behind. We decided to take a break from trying to force a plan to work, when obviously the Universe was telling us to do something different.

Growing and Loving


The Newlyweds and their puppy son! 
Since the last time we updated this site, so much has happened! For one, Kyle and I got married on 2/25/12! Here we are on our wedding day, happy as can be with our loveable pup, Buddy. We had a lovely intimate gathering of 17 at my parents’ house, which allowed for both of my parents to be comfortable. Since my father is in the progressed stages of his illness, having the wedding at his and my mom's house was the most important priority for us, and we couldn't have asked for a better evening.
