In my “about” page, you will see that I recently obtained my graduate degree in environmental sciences and policy and am currently working at a nonprofit. I grew-up in a financially poor but very loving family. My family was unable to pay for my undergraduate and graduate education so I worked my way through school and took out student loans. I now have close to $100,000 in student loan debt. Because I work in the nonprofit field, I don’t make much money. I love the work that I am doing and feel that I am making a direct impact in protecting the environment and human health.

However, I am increasingly feeling as if I am drowning in my debt and feel like much more of my time is being spent on trying to find ways to make money than to focus on the things that I really care about. In an effort to sort-out my motivations and conflicts and to better understand what success means, I decided to create this website. I also thought that it would be a good way to possibly bring in a secondary source of income after reading about how blogs and other websites have become so financially successful. I don’t want to annoyingly monetize this website (and frankly my lack of marketing skills and website coding skills prevent me from doing so). What I want to do is to continue providing free resources to the reader that will help improve their understanding of success and expand their way of thinking on the subject–to improve their chances of being healthier, wealthier, and wiser.

If you find the information on this website helpful, please donate by clicking on the “donate” button to the left. As (if) donations come in, I will document how they are helping to pay down my student loan debt.
