I describe myself as a Peace, Justice and Environmental activist. I've been playing around, in a somewhat serious fashion, with the notion of constructing a New World Paradigm since 1974.

'''Education'''

I have a Permaculture Design Certificate and have taught certified permaculture courses

I have a bachelors in Economics and Psychology, but my interest in economics and psychology go far beyond that. Also an associates degree in Data Processing and one course short of an associates in Drama.

'''Work'''

Computer related: Instructor, Director. Analyst, Programmer

Counselor, emotionally disturbed adolescents and developmentally disabled adults.

'''Activism:'''

Was ve'''ry active''' in the Navajo's (Dine') resistance to relocation struggle against the US gov and Peabody Coal Co. as a part of the Big Mountain Legal Defense/Offense Committee. Organized and raised funds for sever'''al''' Dine' and Hopi elder contingents to the UN Human Rights Commission in Geneva as part of the effort to halt relocation. Also wrote speeches and press releases and ran for coffee. Organized the first Indigenous run certified permaculture teaching team in Western Hemisphere (I was the only white boy).
