One Amazing Thing I've Done
Hard to top skiing 3 feet of powder in steep Utah back country. Seriously, I remember the first time I skied in that much new snow I had to stop and revel in the moment. It was sureal.
My Interests
The urban environment fascinates me. I'm also interested in sustainability issues- we need to pay more attention to how we impact our places and other people. I'm a people watcher; there are so many interesting people out there to meet and learn from. I love biking, skiing, and general outdoor recreation. Music is super important- I go to a lot of shows and muddle around with the guitar a bit myself. Of course, travel is a passion, and I'm constantly thinking about my next big trip, whatever and whenever that may be.
