ABOUT ME

I'm a guy who likes trying new things, meeting new people, and seeing new places. I play ultimate frisbee, I love to hike, I'm a big fan of nature and cities and cooking and eating and beer.

I'm a very competitive guy--I like pretty much any game, from card playing to sports to beer chugging.
