ABOUT ME

I like to make and fix things including; cooking, building stuff, cartography, graphic design, research, analysis, geoprocessing, mapping, programming, modeling, hiking, biking, motorcycle touring, making people smile, and being productive. I'm a pretty good cook and I eat a vegetarian diet. I'm very easy going, respectful, clean, and independent.
