ABOUT ME

While I was growing up, my dad was in the airforce, so my family and I moved around every three to four years. Having such a transient childhood made me adaptable, easy going and adventurous. I rarely get upset, and I'll try anything once.

PHILOSOPHY

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain
