CURRENT MISSION

TO THE MOON

ABOUT ME

Just moved to Portland after a year and a half living out of my backpack traveling around the world. I own a small organic T-Shirt company in Portland with the simple goal of making enough to support my travel habit, as well as all of those other pesky expenses like health insurance, new climbing shoes, and beer. I enjoy the conversations and company of old and new friends, but for the most part I would be content alone in a tropical jungle with just my camera and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
