One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in the UK for a year despite growing up in a home where none of my family had previously set foot on an airplane.

I biked (West to East) the state of Iowa in 18.5 hours.

I biked 330 miles self supported on gravel roads in 26 hours to get 3rd place in one of the most crazy bike races in the US.

I have qualified for nationals in the US Half Ironman Championship series.

I drank 4.5 lit of beer in the Hofbrauhaus (Munich, Germany) in a single sitting.

I've worked in downtown San Francisco.

I commute between Main and California for my new businesses...
