CURRENT MISSION Travel the world and document what I find through word, photographs, and video. ABOUT ME I'm currently working as a TV photojournalist based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and, like many on here, I have a penchant for traveling! I'd like to end up someday working as a foreign correspondent for US media - so America knows what's going on in the rest of the weird, wonderful world. I like traveling, beer, good music (see below), the issues and effects surrounding legal 420 (I am from Colorado, after all), meeting new people, learning about other cultures, going places I shouldn't, developing my own film, riding bikes, and adventuring in the wilderness. I've also recently taken up kayaking, so if you're into kayak/canoe/SUPing, let's get out on the water!

我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
Stood in both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. That's pretty big for me, having been born in a landlocked state and all.
