CURRENT MISSION

To see new places, meet lots of different people, constantly challenge myself, and tell stories about all of it

ABOUT ME

I'm my best person when I'm being challenged, usually when I'm traveling or meeting new people. I was born in Texas and grew up in the Midwest in various states. I lived in Peru for one year with a host family. I have lived in New York City for the past 5 years, and am now going back to film and television school to complete my degree.

PHILOSOPHY

He or she who never dares to roll the dice will never roll a six! -Eric Cantona

Interests

I think story-telling in any form (film, song, book) is extremely important and fascinating, and is one of my favorite things to do. I can play piano, guitar, saxophone, and various other thingamabobs. I love to document things, whether it be with a camera, or writing and recording a song. I love to read and write, and I love to go for a long run. Whiskey is my drink of choice, I eat any and all types of food, and I love forests, beaches, and mountains and camping.
