About Me

I'm a climber, software engineer, and traveler. I'm currently traveling the globe while working on my freelance business. I usually pick a new country for a few months while I work on a project. Eventually I'll return back to the states to buy a van, adopt a dog, and drive out west to climb a ton. I like the outdoors, deep discussions, and hanging out with good people.

Great at buying beers and doing dishes!
