About Me

CURRENT MISSION

It's simple, Be happy. If you're happy and you don't let the little things get you down life will take care of itself

ABOUT ME

I love bicycling more than anything in the world, all kinds, mountain, road, unicycling, you name it. I love everything out doors and wish to see it all. I want to learn to climb and survive so that I can be dropped out in the middle of no where and just wonder through the wilderness. I love adventure and hate knowing what's going to happen to me next. I envy all the people that are just traveling around and hope to be doing the same someday.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to be happy. Very little can get me down. I love to laugh and laugh at any and every chance I get. Life has too many twist and turns you just have to go where it takes you. You should have a direction, but take it one blow at a time and see what happens, too many people plan too much then get upset when things don't go right.

Music, Movies, and Books

I was a film/video major so there are way too many movies that I love to start listing them. Rocky is by far the greatest movies ever made, especially Rocky IV. Beyond that people say they like good movies, well I like watching all movies. There is something good in every movie and sometimes it's just that they are so bad that they're funny.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Possibly the most amazing 15 minutes of my life was when I was downhill mountain biking in New Zealand

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a ton about bikes, especially fixing them. I know about lighting so if photographers or film people want to know anything about that.

I want to learn so much I could go on for days. A few main things that I want to learn and will someday learn is to rock climb, fence, survive in the wild, and downhill mountain bike:)
