CURRENT MISSION

Broaden my horizons, but narrow my focus.

ABOUT ME

I live in Montpelier, Vermont... the nation's smallest state capitol. It's certainly a small town, I can't go anywhere without seeing a few people that I know, which can be good and bad. But the best thing is that it is one of the few small towns in the country where you can live without needing a car. I have a car, but I rarely use it, and I know I could live an entire year without needing to get into a car. Every necessity of life can be found with a 5 minute walk or bike ride.

PHILOSOPHY

I'd like to create a few beautiful things to leave for posterity.
