About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Never stop traveling

ABOUT ME

I'm finishing up my finance degree at the University of Iowa. I enjoy going out to the local pub or random weekend camping trips. Sushi dinner and martinis or impromptu rock climbing trips on the weekend. I home brew and am a beer fanatic. I love Iowa City and am happy to show people around

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Phosphorescent night dive off of Isla Rotan. After spotlighting sharks and rays and having my heart skip a beat we finished the dive by surfacing to the ocean glowing red and green under a full moon. At that moment we were all in another world.
