About Me

CURRENT MISSION

leave the world better than you found it

ABOUT ME

I like to have fun, explore, and dream. I like to play disk golf, longboard, bike, hike, camp..... LIFE. I enjoy soccer both playing and watching. As many do, i have caught the very contagious "traveling bug" and there is only one cure and that is to keep your feet moving. Music and food are very important to me because of what they can do to the soul. Sharing these two items help connect people on different levels. As a part of the world community i find it very important to try to leave the world better than you found it. Teach your skills to others, share a joke/song/COUCH, and do you part for the environment.

PHILOSOPHY

I know I exist now. I dont know if I will after this world, so I head in a direction that makes my soul come alive.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I will never forget waking up above the clouds in the boulder field of Longs Peak on my first climb of a 14er.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a recent engineering graduate and am very technical minded. I have a huge appreciation for the arts and am always trying to develop my creative side. I love to learn, whether it's how to play a song, learning something new to cook, or something that came from a book.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make some mean food when inspired and can hunt out some pretty fantastic beers and whiskeys. I homebrew and have produced some great ales. I also love to share my passion for soccer and science.
