I grew up an Oregonian and I love every corner of our great state from the city to the desert. After working in New Mexico, I returned to Oregon determined to find the perfect spot -- star filled skies, sunny days, an ocean of open spaces to explore, rich history, moderate politics, friendly folks, and an entrepreneurial artistic spirit.
As a community organizer, I have worked across the country for causes I believe can make the world a better place. Having traveled much of my life and working in the travel industry it's no surprise that hosting families and newcomers to Oregon brings me a great deal of joy. Whether or not you stay at the Recreation House, I hope you have a wonderful time in central Oregon. Take some time to explore our vast special natural areas, historical places, museums, local music and breweries, and i'm sure you will love your life while living in central Oregon.
