Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learning about people by meeting them!
ABOUT ME
I try to be kind, helpful, tolerant, curious and fun to talk to. I treat others with respect, including their homes or their belongings. I am a clean guy, not a smoker/drinker, don't mind if others do though. I enjoy socializing, both listening and talking. I lean toward intellectual rather than silly. But, I definitely enjoy humor. I work with kids each week through a program called Pathfinders. We do a lot of outdoor activities like caving, hiking, backpacking, snow camping, climbing and a lot more.
PHILOSOPHY
We are on earth for such a short time. I am trying to maximize my time by learning how to love other people and then making that part of my life. I thought I had everything figured out. But I didn't.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I lived through being in the eye of the strongest hurricane on record of the Atlantic seaboard, while staying in Mexico. Just after Katrina. Jumped over a military fence in Israel and ran for it. Lived on a sailboat for a few years.
