I'm an easy going, optimistic guy who is rambling around the states. I really love a good conversation about music, film/tv, technology and/or the future of our world.

Life is a crazy, wild ride, and I love trying new, interesting things. I love observing the wonder that is the universe. My goal in life is to help the world and have fun doing it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I, along with some friends, hiked up to Half Dome in Yosemite. We climbed up and down the cables with no tether. Amazing? To me. Stupid? Debatable. We sang songs as we ascended and descended to keep ourselves from looking down.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about filmmaking, acting and how to make films. I also dabble in other types of art, so I like trying to make just about anything! I know basic carpentry, cooking, and Adobe (computer) products. Ooh! I also play guitar and always travel with one, so I can play a tune or three. I am also really into thinking about existence, so I really enjoy philosophical issues.

Recently I traveled to Indonesia to go to a Java-based coding bootcamp. Since then, I have learned SQL, AWS, HTML, JavaScript and CSS. We could chat about different technologies in this space and learn from each other!
