About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet interesting people, see amazing things, do incredible stuff. Live, simply.

ABOUT ME

I plan on heading off to travel throughout Asia this Summer so am looking forward to meeting a ton of people on the way and building up a CS base worldwide.

At home I'm working on finishing up my Paramedic certification in Northern Virginia then hopefully finding a job full time as a Firefighter/Medic somewhere, anywhere. Down the line I'd like to go back to school and get my Physician Assistants license and be a traveling PA. Anything that gets me out of the Mon-Fri/9-5 job is fine by me.

I have huge appreciation for humor, sarcasm, and internal drive.

Sunny days make me feel euphoric.

PHILOSOPHY

"Man is the only animal whose desires increase as they are fed; the only animal that is never satisfied."
