CURRENT MISSION

"I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now."

ABOUT ME

This feels like a dating profile! "My friends describe me as..." I guess I think of myself as fairly normal, easy to get talk to, cautiously adventurous and happy to provide a laugh or two. I've learned over the years that life doesn't always go as planned, and it's best to roll with the punches occasionally than always try to fight back.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy every sandwich.

May I have the hindsight to know where I've been, the foresight to know where I'm going, and the insight to know when I've gone too far.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Other than a teenage trip to Montreal, my travel has been 100% in the US. I've been to 30 states, and look forward to checking more off my list in the coming years. My goal is all 50 by 50 , as well as see a lot more of Canada and the rest of the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a good listener. Seriously, doesn't the world need more of those?
