ABOUT ME

I am a Musician hailing from Vancouver BC. I play guitar and piano, and have been in several bands in my hometown in the past few years.

I like to meet new people, and am an outgoing person. I love exploring new places and going on adventures, as well as taking it easy and watching movies etc.

I love being active, and regularly go for runs/swims/bikerides when I'm at home. I also skimboard and longboard. One of my goals is to learn how to surf!

I recently graduated from the Sauder School of Business at UBC, and am travelling the world as of June 2008.

PHILOSOPHY

I am very passionate about living a good life and try to live each day to the fullest. I appreciate my surroundings and do not impose my beliefs on others.

This is my favourite quote when deciding where you should work:

"Do what you love. If you do that, you'll never work a day again in your life."
