About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Introspection, travel, and adventure!

ABOUT ME

I'm an entrepreneur going through a life transition after selling ownership in my last company. I'm looking to spend some time exploring the world, meeting new people, finding adventures, and sharing laughs. I'm extremely easy going and respectful of peoples desires. I enjoy intellectual conversation about psychology, business ideas, and this awesome adventure of life. I enjoy finding doing extreme activities like wing walking on a plane and more recently I'm trying to be more active outdoors. I really love a good electronic show or rave. My friends would say I'm a very happy/positive guy that is one of the nicest people they know. If we have the chance to meet, I hope to add you to that list :)

PHILOSOPHY

The more you give, the more you receive. I really enjoy helping inspire others to live the life they desire.

I enjoy online marketing, learning about copywriting, and exploring various business models. I have managed up to 20 employees and can pull together a team. I mostly though have studied how to live a life of well-being and have lots of ideas to share in that regard.
