About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I have yet to paint my masterpiece!

ABOUT ME

I teach freshman English, I play a lot of instruments, collect a lot of instruments/amps, and collect/listen to a lot of records. I love to surf and fix up old surfboards, and I love taking surf trips with anyone interested. I'm definitely a lifelong learner, and try to be as open-minded as possible.

PHILOSOPHY

"Buy the ticket, take the ride" - Hunter S. Thompson

I like to keep moving!
