CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Things That Keep Me Going:
- Good folks - whether they be lifelong friends or amigos del dia
- Neat sights - whether it's on the cover of the guidebook or a hidden gem uncovered by chance
- Deep thoughts - reflective time alone or in-depth conversation with anyone interested

The seasons here in the Colorado Rocky Mountains are magnificent. I enjoy snowboarding in winter; camping and being on the river in spring and summer; and traveling, learning new things, and gaining unique experiences anytime I get the chance.

PHILOSOPHY

Sometimes you eat the bear, sometimes the bear eats you.
