About Me

CURRENT MISSION

sail across the ocean

ABOUT ME

I like new experiences. Lately I've been doing more camping and hiking and finding there's so much great stuff to see no matter where you go. I love chatting about life, capturing a unique side of a place in a photograph, sleeping under the stars, climbing trees, skipping rocks, seeing the sunrise from an airplane, meeting people's pets, and getting totally sucked into a good book.

PHILOSOPHY

If I am not for myself, who is for me?
And if I am only for myself, what am I?
And if not now, when?
- Pirkei Avot 1:14
