ABOUT ME

Love, pain, laughter, food, fitness, travles, music and film...this is me in a nutshell...without these things, my existance could not sing.

A while ago i made a promise to myself...that, no matter what the circumstances, i would walk, climb and fall over as much ground on this planet as possible before i cease to breathe...and during my "quest", if you will, would also make it a strong priority to eat well (whenever possible), and experience extreme multitudes of music, good company and pure, utter debauchery.

Today, at home (which is Portland, OR, United States), my life style consists of: undergoing as much tattoo work as possible, skydiving, hiking, weight lifting, weekend road trips, fine dining, fine drinking, live music, visiting art galleries, lazy couch dwelling while holding consequentially deep or absurdly brain-dead conversations, and the occasional work day (after all, one must make some sort of funds eh?).
