Currently motorcycling through New Zealand.

I am from Baltimore Maryland area, I went to college at West Virginia University. While in college I've traveled across the U.S. twice by car, skied in Canada and Colorado, rode dirt bikes in Utah, Washington, and West Virginia, worked as a machinist, climbing arborist, barista, and university representative. I spent most of my Thursday nights in college playing drums at a brew pub in a house band for a jazz jam session and most of my Wednesday nights at the same brew pub listening to bluegrass and drinking good beer. I have a bachelors degree in wood science & technology with a minor in jazz performance. Currently I work for a hardwood lumber company and I travel a lot. When I'm not working I'm usually traveling for fun, trying to do outdoorsy activities and get the local experience.
