I've always been laid back and curious about everything. I grew up in Southwest Iowa and love to travel. I've lived in Key West, Spain, China, and Thailand, but some how always end up back at home where the friends and family are.

I listen to a lot of podcasts too, like Dan Carlins "Hardcore History", The Joe Rogan Experience, & Warrior Poet Project.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going swimming with sharks in the Caribbean, but dont plan on doing it again... One of the sharks came straight at me looking like it wanted to see what I tasted like and at the very last second when I waved my flippers in front of its face it dived underneath me and thats when I jetted for the boat.
