local, organic, and sustainable  

(but nothing to do with food)

I believe in the power of a strong local economy. 

It takes a village - especially when you actually live in a village (population 1,475) like I do.

I believe in letting the process unfold. 

It's amazing what can happen when you trust the organic nature of the creative process.

I believe in working to live but loving to work. 

Any other way is unfulfilling, unproductive and unsustainable.  And life's too short.
