CURRENT MISSION
attempting to make it through life, while experiencing and traveling the world - one city and one couch at a time
ABOUT ME
I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii where I learned to surf, eat, do everything outdoors, and run. I decided to go away for undergrad at the Portland in Oregon, where I was a student-athlete and also studied Civil/Environmental Engineering. I graduated in May 2011 with my BS and in May 2012 with my MSE from Johns Hopkins. Now I reside in Washington, DC where I work as an Environmental Engineer. While being here on the east coast I hope to make many friends, visit many places, and experience everything and anything.
PHILOSOPHY
i think mahatma said it right --- BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD
Winning is one of the hardest of habits, but character is harder
