CURRENT MISSION

To explore. To listen. To learn. To connect.

ABOUT ME

Architecture school consumes the bulk of my life at the moment, but I try my best to balance this with adventure -- climbing trees, skinning up snowy mountains, bike touring, rafting rivers, backpacking...

If I could have one superhuman power it would be to speak every language.
