About me: (Find me on Facebook now! www.facebook.com)
I like to be on the move, see new places, meet new faces, challenge myself. Why sit still when there's such a big world out there to see? So, I've held a lot of jobs, experienced a great life, and I'm always looking forward to the next big adventure... or little, whatever I can fit in. Just give me something to photograph, something to write about, something to be proud of.
What's next? I'm in Alaska. Landed a great job with a rising media company, specializing in outdoor recreation publications and events. So far so good. I've become the new Managing Editor for Coast Magazine. Not only are my coworkers and boss very cool, I'm learning a lot about Alaska and all the recreational opportunities here. Coast allows me to get out and enjoy my new home in a BIG way. I've also bought some land near Denali National Park, so it's time to start working on a cabin. I've got a lot to learn!
