I would like to acknowledge the Puyallup Tribe in awareness of the land that I work on. I am grateful to be able to help others on this land and will always keep in mind the people who have taken care of it for thousands of years prior to my arrival and continue to care for it. I will always do my best to walk gently on the earth beneath my feet.

​

I would like to acknowledge the Cowlitz Indian Tribe. You have brought many blessings, teachings, and opportunities for growth into my life. I am forever grateful for the gifts you have given me and hope I have in some way returned those gifts to your people and all the others we serve together.

​

I would like to thank and acknowledge all of the teachers I have had throughout my life. From brief encounters to deep analysis I have seen the reflections of my soul through the relationships I experience with all of you.
