Into rock climbing, ice climbing, alpine climbing, mountaineering, canyoneering, telemark, getting off the beaten path and exploring the backcountry or whereever I may be.

I pay the bills developing software...hmmmm. I have a Wilderness First Responder certification and a Level II Avalanche certification. Also taken self-rescue courses.

I occasionally volunteer my time working with children who have cancer, and I'm always open to working with others who are not as fortunate.

I've traveled to East Africa (Tanzania, Zanzibar), the great Pacific Northwest, the Colorado Plateau, British Columbia, Peru, Bolivia, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Singapore, Hong Kong, the Philippines.

"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bow lines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. "
