I play in a band called American Authors and music is my life. I love the outdoors, mountaineering, rock and ice climbing, hanggliding, skydiving, running, petting other peoples dogs, food, and cold weather. I am pretty easy going i just like to have a good time. I also used to host a Chinese TV show for a while which was a crazy/fun job. Now I get to travel, play music, and write songs for a living. Life can be as fun and crazy as we make it.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep this train rolling

Climbed 4 of the 7 summit's which are the biggest mountains on each continent. Another thing is I chased my dream of being in a band with my best friends and it worked out against all odds.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some music

If you like the outdoors (climbing, hiking, skiing, and so on) i can help teach those things.

Learn:
