About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning, adventuring, writing

ABOUT ME

I recently left a consulting job in Boston, Massachusetts to become a full-time adventurer.

I enjoy good adventure stories, playing tennis, finding hole-in-the-wall, off-the-beaten-path places, enjoying a cold drink with old or new friends, meeting new people, skiing, reading, and more.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to always be learning new things and to be challenging myself through new life experiences. So I like meeting people, listening to and telling stories, and visiting new places.
