About Me
CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
I was born and raised in the south of the U.S. in Franklin, Tennessee. Lived there for 18 years. Ran track, played soccer, lacrosse, and basketball, wrestled, climbed, hiked, camped and I read and spoke my mind. I am an Eagle Scout. I moved to Poland because I wanted to experience the world outside of the "American Dream".
PHILOSOPHY
Experience what you can and guess what you cannot.
