About Me

Here's the thing about me, I like to get lost; to fall off the map sometimes. I like driving to places I have never been before and finding my way back along a new route. Exploring new places and experiencing new things are the closest I feel to being alive. Sitting at a desk makes me insane. Being in the ocean makes me happy. I've found that few things are better than a bottle of wine and conversation - especially the conversation over the second half of the bottle. Music transforms my moods and Films inspire my mind. I have amazing friends that I wouldn't trade for the world and a family that loves me unconditionally. How lucky is that?I am slowly checking off things on my list of "Things to do before I go hunting with Dick Cheney" list. A few remaining items are: Drive the PCH, Surf in Fiji, Surf in Hawaii, Track Mountain Gorillas, Scuba dive in the Great Barrier Reef, Kayak with killer whales, direct a feature film, see Radiohead play Kid A straight through live, Camp in Sequoia National Park, see The Killers Live, hike the Appalachian Trail, get a dog, go to Kenya, Namibia, Tanzania, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Spain, Amsterdam, China, Russia, Vancouver, Greece, Croatia, Turkey, Mount St. Helens, Crater Lake, have kids, buy a house and skydive.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Cool artistic people to hang with, surf with, dive with, hike with, do fun shit with. People unafraid of expressing their own beliefs.This is a video I made from one of my dives with Eco Dive Center:
