ABOUT ME
I am an outgoing person who loves the outdoors and the activities that they allow us. Starting I am going to Graduate school for Thin Film Materials Science at Oregon state university. I have become big into the cycling community here with bike polo and working as a volunteer shop manager at our local Bike Collective. I love meeting new people, am all about experiencing life and learning from everyone.
PHILOSOPHY
Sleep when you're dead.
What is life without living.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I wouldn't want to say there was just one thing, but I hope amazing things continue to happen.
Some of my best and scariest experiences have been while climbing; from having a Bald Eagle fly a few feet below me when I was about to top out on a cliff, to watching a close friend fall 100 feet while ice climbing and being only a little worse for the wear.
Teach, Learn, Share
Being a Materials Engineering Phd I can share a lot when it comes to all aspects of my field but that is boring and nerdy.
More fun is stuff about bicycles and winging trips(how they become adventures).
Also I can offer help with that project you are working on in your house as I have practically built one.
