About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel.

ABOUT ME

Grew up in Colorado, lived in San Francisco for a few years, now so happy to be back in Colorado. I work in tech so I spend a lot of time in front of computers, but I also love the outdoors and get out climbing, camping, sailing, snowboarding, hiking, running, music festival-ing, and traveling as often as possible.

I'm a huge fan of the couchsurfing project and believe strongly in being a gracious host and guest.

PHILOSOPHY

"€œWhat is that feeling when you're driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? - it's the too-huge world vaulting us, and it's good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies."

"Holding on to anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die."

The hardest thing is to know what to want.
