CURRENT MISSION

living with my hands before i go back to filling my head

ABOUT ME

i lived in haddonfield, new jersey my whole life until i got sick of it and moved to costa rica for my senior year of high school. i got my diploma there and learned to speak a bit of spanish. i took a year off to work on farms and be a ski bum in steamboat springs before starting school at colorado college. i have a stutter. i've had it my whole life. i still love talking. i have identity issues because i'm a mountain man but i can't grow a beard. i'll probably live on a farm or a mountain or a combination of the two when i really settle down.

PHILOSOPHY

i'm constantly working to be a better person. john riker's book "why it is good to be good" lines up pretty well with my personal philosophy.
