CURRENT MISSION

To live, lead, have fun, and be a child of God

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Justin. I am entrepreneur from Madison WI. I graduated as a Computer Engineer from UW-Madison, I interned as a software engineer at Google and a program manager at Microsoft. I am a Christian and believe Jesus is alive and that fact makes a huge difference in my life. I love building things, traveling places, working with people, adventures and having fun enjoying every day I have on this planet. I aspire to become a world class CEO, great father, an enjoyable student, trustworthy mentor, and a one of a kind true friend.

PHILOSOPHY

A simple life makes it flexible and eventually leads to the ability to get to where you want to be. These are the blessings given to me from above, thus I shall enjoy them. Trust God, love people, live life. Its all in the details.

I feel each of us has a lot of influence over our life direction and fundumental happieness. I feel the best moments are spent with people we enjoy, doing things to create memories. I love traveling, I travel quite a bit, my next dream trip is a motorcycle ride in souther france into northern italy.

I love my job and what I do, and take a lot of pride in my career and what I spend my time working on. I can't imagine not having fun at work!

I pride myself on being extremely honest (blunt) but very sensitive. Once you get to know me you realize I am an optimist. I drive people very hard because they can handle it.

I am a saver, the more you save the more freedom you can feel.

I believe in happier living by "doing less" and doing those few things really well.

教，学，和分享

Most recently I do a lot of business, management, and creative development. I've spent the last 2 years organizing people, raising money, managing people, constructing business models, evaluating ideas, constructing partnerships and negotiating deals. So if any of that sounds interesting to you, I am sure we'll have a great conversations.

But more broadly, I love adventure. I try to make any moment I have an adventure with the people. (which is part of the reason I am doing all of this business stuff. I love the challenge and the adventure of doing something extremely hard and creative.

I have a geniune interest in my life direction whether it is my friendships, relationships, career choices, personal habits. I spend a lot of time reflecting on who I am and where am I going.

As far as other core things. I am a geek. I person who loves coming up with ideas, I know chess, ballroom dance, am a sucker for a good board game. I come from a family of farmers so I am a good story teller.
