ABOUT ME

over the last 12 years, i've worked in 5 national parks: Glacier, Big Bend, Grand Tetons, Yosemite, Olympic. i also have a condo in Chicago, and i've been going back and forth. work in restaurants, so have been able to find work in different places fairly easily (sometimes!)
love traveling inbetween and seeing as much of the US as possible; love driving the open road, and get on the 2-lanes as much as possible.
