CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

After returning from 8 months in New Zealand growing kiwifruit, I returned to grand rapids to help grow some companies.

When I was a toddler, I mailed my pacifier, which I called "nummie", to a baby elf at the North Pole who needed it more than me, performing my first great act of altruism and service.

I'm happy, passionate, and kind.

PHILOSOPHY

I love to laugh, explore, create and challenge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack-ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched sea-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain."
-Roy Batty

Scuba diving down a 6000ft wall is pretty groovy, too.

Have you ever seen Saturn through a telescope in the backyard?
