About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world one piece at a time

ABOUT ME

I am as easy going as they get, and I love to travel the world amidst my busy schedule. I have a mission to make one interational trip per year, and am always BLOWN AWAY by what I uncover.

I love to play sports - I'm as active as they come. I play soccer, basketball, surf, bike, run, swim, hike, backpack, snowboard, and just about everything else.

Most of all, I like to be around dynamic, funny, interesting people that can challenge me intellectually and socially.

PHILOSOPHY

Laugh as much as you can, and for heaven's sake don't take yourself too seriously.
