ABOUT ME

I'm a fun guy who loves nature and the outdoors. I recently graduated and am in the process of discovering who I am and want to be. I'm volunteering at the local makerspace where I enjoy learning how to use cool tools like 3D printers and laser cutters, and can release some of my artistic passions. I love my community here in San Luis Obispo, and want to contribute to the city thats been so good to me. I also love plants!

PHILOSOPHY

Balance. I think physical balance and mental balance are crucial to living a meaningful and healthy life. This is what I like about slack lining, and why I pursue a wide variety of interests. I'm afraid of being trapped into one way of thinking or doing, so I search for variety in a way that brings balance to my life.
