ABOUT ME
Someone once described me as a combination between a pillow and a multitool. I think I'm okay with that. Other than that, I think people would say I'm a good listener, very patient, pragmatic...
Interests
I work in a health center for homeless individuals and spend most of my free time bike riding/racing. I also spend a lot of time thinking about, reading about, watching videos of...bike touring! I'd love to bike across the country, maybe next year...
