I'm a surfer from Virginia who has lived in China & Taiwan for 10+ years. Through most of my years have been spent teaching in Asia, I've also spent a few years working freelance, mostly on events and photography. I live to surf and travel the world! I'm also an avid record collector, DJ, and music lover. Somewhat of a hippie and health nut, I hope to have my own farm one day.
