CURRENT MISSION

to escape the labyrinth

ABOUT ME

After college, I worked a fairly normal job as an environmental technician and after two years could no longer stand it. I packed up and went to Costa Rica to clear my head with all kinds of ambitious plans. Then I discovered surfing, which became my life for the rest of the trip. Before I knew it, a month and a half passed and I had to go home. Unable to accept another normal job, I found employment as a whitewater river guide on the Youghiogheny river. Now it's cold. No one wants to go rafting. It's time for something new...

PHILOSOPHY

ALL FORWARD!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Flipped the raft an amazing 12 (perhaps more -- I lost count) times in one trip down the Upper Gauley River. I am a veritable connoisseur of carnage.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Don't talk to strangers -- it's dangerous and super scary.
