CURRENT MISSION

To backpack Europe and run over 800 miles (1287km) in 80 days or less while there.

ABOUT ME

I grew up on a farm in the US state of Nebraska, and somehow that upbringing gave rise to an adventure-seeking, open-minded spirit who will soon be studying urban planning in Denver, Colorado. I love running and books and architecture, and I just graduated with a BA in political science and economics.

PHILOSOPHY

"Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be."
--Abraham Lincoln

"The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim to high and falling short, but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark."
--Michelangelo

“I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.”
--Galileo Galilei
