I am a very diverse individual. People either love me, or they hate me, or they think I'm ok... I'm a serious guy that loves joking around. I'm very goal oriented and as long as I have something to look forward to I think I can get through anything life throws at me. Also, I don't drink, do drugs or smoke.

Live, don't just survive.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked across hot coals in my bare feet in the mountains in Utah. I also got shot in the eye with a BB gun when I was 14.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching people about the things I love. I'm a snowboard instructor and offer free lessons to anyone who is willing to learn. I love talking about how much I love hardcore and showing pictures and youtube videos of bands I've seen. I recently did my first bike tour and am curious to hear other people's stories of traveling by bike.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can show you my favorite vegetarian/vegan places in Portland and maybe show you around by bike.
