CURRENT MISSION

To live long and prosper

ABOUT ME

I'm a geek, but I'm adventurous. I live on Vancouver Island on the west coast of Canada, a magnificent area for the outdoors people and those that enjoy a slower, greener pace of life. Surfing, hiking, biking, beaches, bongos, reading books by the ocean, drinking beer on patios. These are the things we do.

I'm doing my PhD in wind power meteorology and currently I'm in northern Germany for a couple months on a research exchange. I've traveled through the Mideast and South America but have barely seen Europe. I'm hoping to change that now.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the brief time we have while making a positive impact along the way.

And make music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once went a week straight without tripping over my feet. I was thrilled.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give you a lesson in guitar, surfing, or making a mean lasagna.
