About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To figure out what I want to do with my life...or something like that?

ABOUT ME

I was working as a trader, living in NYC and London, and while it was interesting and an amazing job, it just didn't feel fulfilling enough. Sooo I left the company, and am moving to Colorado to give something else a try. I love traveling, pretty much more than anything else, and love seeing new places and learning about new cultures. Oh and anything adrenaline-pumping is always a go!

PHILOSOPHY

Regrets come not from that which you do, but that which you fail to do..."the trial of miles, miles of trials"
