I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Living life somewhere lost at the base of the Grand Teton Mountains in Northwestern Wyoming, deep into beer number twenty-four of a cold case of Mirror Pond Pale, cigar in hand, and wind at my back.

If you've happened upon MY space, you probably have a pretty good idea about who I am. You have witnessed my addiction to fishing and habit of tinkering with motorcycles. You know I am a rabid Red Sox fan, from my college years in Boston. Most of you have sat out a baseball game with me, hiked a Wyoming mountaintop, fished a weekend without sleep, or shared a story over a beer and shot of whiskey, while letting me bitch about things you didn't really care that much about. It is with all of this in mind that I welcome you, friend.
