Quote

I'm on Governor Gray Davis' California Alliance Towards Education to bring the arts back to high schools.

I like to oversee what I do, so I have a hand in writing my songs. I also have people there to help me with my vision.

I've worked throughout California as a poet: in colleges, universities, worker camps, migrant education offices, continuation high schools, juvenile halls, prisons, and gifted classrooms.

I realized my calling was to use the arts and ministry to help young people.

I teach metaphysics and pastor a church.

I have spent many years working in education and media, from hosting documentaries to being a spokesperson for Discovery Education to revolutionizing youth environmental service through my non-profit, EarthEcho International.

I'm a product of an East Coast liberal arts educational system.

I have long been interested in exploring and advancing the valuable relationships between the arts and society.

I am not a specialist but a general practitioner in the world of the arts.

My job is art curator, not artist. All I have ever wanted to do is immerse myself in art, to enjoy it, to learn about it, to write about it, to talk to others about it.
