About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn and to live life! I love sharing conversations and experiences all while making new ones with friends and strangers!

ABOUT ME

Howdy! My name is Johnny! Just a daydreamer looking to travel and see the world through my own lens. I work as a User Experience Designer within the tech space. I’m originally from Chicago, but now call Dallas, Texas home! I'm trying to be as spontaneous as I can, grabbing an opportunity when it presents itself. I also enjoying scenic views and exploring the outdoors! I have a never ending wanderlust and it’s caused me to experience things I would have never, otherwise!

PHILOSOPHY

A life dedicated to personal growth, learning, staying humble and sharing with others.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Very wide range of tastes but tend to get lost in a good podcast.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To date: Jumped into a glacial fed lake in the Teton Range.
