CURRENT MISSION

Live a simple life, help out and have fun

ABOUT ME

I'm a calm and positive person, full of compassion and equal enforcement. I can listen intently and yell assertively. My passions involve sharing the outdoors and life experiences with people. I have been addicted to playing rugby, ice climbing, downhill skiing and baking with loud music in the background. It's not about adrenalin, it's about that inner calm you feel when everything aligns beautifully, it's about flow. I'm comfortable in front of big crowds but secretly I'm an active introvert. I believe in potential and that the worst people have the most to offer society once they choose to. I am also very diplomatic in understanding both sides and meticulous in deciding what I support. I also like to bust out the occasional terrible dance move and be silly for no apparent reason on occasion.

PHILOSOPHY

'Can't' is the four letter word that should not be used or believed.
