CURRENT MISSION

to help educate people as to how easy it is to live constructively without destroying the world

ABOUT ME

Im told that im an analytical thinker who likes to explain the simplest things in great detail haha, i love my music and anything to do with getting my hands dirty, i spent a few years in the army just after school but decided i could get further in life without military backing and completed an apprenticeship in engineering, my passions in life would have to be playing bass guitar (music in general actually) and experiencing the outdoors in whatever ways possible.
Also i love cooking and will hardly ever say no to a beer (except after 2 nights at the Oktoberfest) haha

PHILOSOPHY

Always stop and smell the roses
