CURRENT MISSION

I am focusing the rest of my life on two things: take in as much beauty as I can while the world is still beautiful and work to preserve that beauty.

ABOUT ME

I am very into camping and exploring stuff. My ideal vacation is backpacking through some crazy terrain, carrying only the things that I need, being self reliant, while being very vulnerable to everything and anything.

I am a mechanical engineer, working for a company that is trying to develop some technologies that would help green energy be more viable. I am very active, I will play just about any sport except most racket sports. I like to party but I also like to chill. I am very easy going so I am usually down for whatever.

PHILOSOPHY

-Don't eat after 11:30 pm, it will only bring regret.

-Be very dude (big lebowski reference)...meaning don't stress the little stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once helped sew a guys hand closed in the Boundary waters in Northern MN. He split it open on a sharp rock. At this time we were so far from civilization that we had basically no choice but to patch it up and keep going. 6 days later when we got back to the world, his hand looked great.

Teach, Learn, Share
