I like to laugh, mostly at myself and i doubt i'll ever get so old that it will be too loud.

I work in youth athletics for a local non-profit from recreational to professionally competitive levels of athletes.
I love live music of about any genre, as well as performing (I play multiple instruments, none very well). I'm easily convinced to do just about anything active. Favorites of mine are snowboarding, skating (retired semi-pro,) climbing, snorkeling (when I'm not landlocked) and mountain biking. I can just as easily stay home reading a book in English (or trying to read in Spanish), writing short stories or screenplays, or writing music/learning new instruments.

DO NOT ASK ABOUT X-Games please. Friends and family book that time a year in advance. I won't respond to requests for X-Games.
