About Me

I live in Upstate NY with my longtime girlfriend Erica. I enjoy being in the outdoors and travelling, meeting new people and seeing and experiencing new things. Hiking, Mountain Biking & Photography are a few of my most passionate pursuits. I work in retail, but would like to spend more time in the photography field in the future. Overall my desire is to experience creation as it was intended and learn to respect it for what it is. I'm also a thrill ride junky, I like a good roller coaster rides. I enjoy live music, and I see about 10 shows and go to 1 festival a year on average. I have a varied taste in music, I lean towards hippie bands, Raggae, rock bands, folk music, bluegrass, and some classic rock. Bands that I've seen include: The Dead, Pearl Jam, String Cheese Incident, Allman Brothers, Burning Spear, Yonder Mtn String Band, Keller Williams, Bruce Cockburn, Bob Weir & Ratdog, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Phish, Blues Traveler, moe., Michael Franti & Spearhead, Railroad Earth, Jazz Mandolin Project, Max Creek, MMW, Rusted Root, The Slip, Tea Leaf Green, Strangefolk and many others. I think the true measure of a band is the performance that they deliver live, because that is how music began."OBSERVATIONS & EMOTIONS RULE OUR NATURAL REALM & PERCEPTIONS OF REALITY, BUT THE SOUL LIVES BEYOND OBSERVATION, TO THE CORE, THE ESSENCE OF BEING, EXISTING & LOVING. THE ROOT OF LOVE IS THE ROOT OF ALL CREATION."
