About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

My name is Chad, I am 22 and I go to the University of California Santa Barbara. In June '08 I came back to California after having studied in Madrid, Spain my junior year of college. I spend most of my free time playing ultimate frisbee, which is my primary interest.

I am an extremely easy going, laid back guy. I love meeting new people and hanging out with old friends and I love to travel and see new places.
