About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Good food, good wine and good company.

ABOUT ME

I consider myself pretty easy-going but those who know me well know that I like to get things done. Currently I'm in grad school and taking a break from the professional life to figure out exactly what it is I want to do with my life. I own a few acres of land in New Hampshire with a little ski cabin on it and like going up there to get away from the city, hike, swim, split firewood and just enjoy nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Sometimes you just gotta go with it.
