Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Mostly into rock, classic rock, indie rock, folk, alt-country, some country and pop, rap, mash-ups, etc. Open to anything, not ashamed of liking dumb mainstream pop. Can't stand music snobs.

Movies: I'm a definite Netflix addict. I don't claim to be an expert but I love movies and love to talk movies.

Books: Love to read but don't get to do it often enough.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting Yellowstone National Park in high school was a definite turning point for me; it was when I really fell in love with hiking and the outdoors. Since then I've visited some amazing sites(Cochamo Valley in Chile blew my mind) but I think Yellowstone is what really started my love for wild places.
