ABOUT ME

I'm from Wisconsin and grew up traveling. My older brothers and sisters were already in college while I was growing up so I spent a lot of time in the van going out east, west and south to track and cross country meets, graduations, family reunions, all kinds of other fun stuff. By the time I was about 15 I'd been to about 40 of our 50 great states. I haven't traveled much lately, but I started going to college I guess- I still get around quite a bit on my bike though. I haven't traveled overseas, and I'd really like to, all in due time.

I've been a runner since I was old enough to compete at it and lately I've taken a shining to biking. I'm a pretty green minded person and I think a lot about sustainability. I also enjoy reading as much as I can, and learning all that I can.
