About Me

CURRENT MISSION

see and meet as much of europe as possible

ABOUT ME

Grew up in Seattle, love the outdoors. Went to school in NY for sciencey stuff! I finished a 3 month backpacking trip around a few Western European countries and recently snagged a job in Carlsbad, CA as an Engineer working at a spinal implant company and I'm loving it.

PHILOSOPHY

Mostly just try not to be a dick, be honest with yourself about everything, and allow others the freedom to express themselves.
