As someone who has seen his share of adversity, I found myself impossibly curious and philosophical early in life. Perhaps this was much to my parents’ dismay, given my incessant need to know “why?” My life has progressed through many interests and vocations, from Martial Arts and music, to reading, writing, an insatiable love for wild places and even technology, media production, and communications. If I have learned anything about myself, it is that, like an ocean, I seem to be at my best when I am lifting others up, simply by showing them there inherent buoyancy. If you find something of worth in my work and it helps you in any way, know that I am smiling…I’ve done my job.
