Born and raised in Dallas, Texas. I am currently based on Denver, CO. I had just moved here after living in New York City for 8 years in the pursuit of the outdoors.

My interests vary wildly because I find that dabbling into various things provides me with a better perspective on the things that I devote a considerable amount of time to.

Some of things I been enjoying;

Coffee - Currently traveling to visit all 250 shops in this book within NYC. (The New York Coffee Guide 2019: The Definitive Guide to the Best Craft Coffee Venues in New York City) Still enjoy coffee just visiting the local spot when I go for my daily walks given the circumstances.

Climbing (Since Jan 2021. I climb ~V6 and will climb inside or outside! ~5.11b is my onsight grade for outdoors)

Weightlifting - I used to have an 885 total in bench/deadlift/squat

Green Thumb - Successfully propagated succulents, divided ferns and snake plants. Currently bringing an oxalis triangularis back to life. Also winding down my garden in a 12x8 raised bed plot, made a few mistakes with spacing so unfortunately the yield was wonky this year.

Cooking - I was on a mission this year before the pandemic to become a better cook. My favorite thing to make on the regular is this Japanese-styled cucumber salad

Reading - n/a: I’ve found it incredibly hard to read in the midst of the pandemic. I used to primarily read on my commutes. I find it hard to navigate this concept of time currently.

Building things - Anything, everything. The journey is part of the most exciting/thrilling part.
