ABOUT ME
We Keep Going.com
Find me on Facebook here.
In August, 2009 I completed a bike tour from New York to Los Angeles. It was amazing. So amazing, in fact, that myself and another rider decided to keep going. We're in LA now, about to start a ride through Mexico, Central America, and South America all the way to Argentina, then back up to Brazil.
I have lived all over the U.S. The South, New England, Midwest, and even Yosemite National Park for a while. I landed in California and have been in San Francisco for over three years now. San Francisco is a rad little town. I live for seeing how and where different people live. Sitting in cafes and watching unfamiliar worlds go by. Walking. Walking. Walking. Biking. Biking. Biking. Absorbing. Seeing what happens at night, which sometimes transitions into seeing what happens at the crack of dawn. Usually I'd much rather hang with locals in a dump than tourists in a palace. I studied art design and illustration in college and have worked in galleries and as a designer.
PHILOSOPHY
Kindness. Laughter. Shared experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I finished the Chicago Marathon without training after a night of gin and tonics and tobacco. I don't recommend doing this.
Rode my bike from New York to Los Angeles. I do recommend doing this.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am a semi-competent bicycle repairman. I'm a not-terrible carpenter. I know, like, one or two break dance moves.
