About Me

With my minimal PTO per year, I find myself travelling over the weekends now. I am an avid climber who loves to climb outdoors whether it be bouldering or sport climbing. I work two jobs currently in Minneapolis and especially love my work as a route setter. I also like to get spontaneous tattoos.

I like to spend my free time working out, climbing, making jewelry, thrifting, eating deliciously local food, listening to music, hanging with my puppy and partner, going to shows, etc. I really.. Really do like to eat though.

I don't have very many references, but you could check out my one Airbnb one? https://www.airbnb.com/users/show/79828798

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had spent 8 months living on the road after graduation. Lived in my car and climbed all along the West Coast, eventually ran out of money, and learned how to dumpster dive and trade art for food and goods. All of the people I have met during that adventure I still keep in touch with, because I think my heart and mind were at my purest. I hope more people will take the time to do this or make it into a lifestyle!
