More About Me

I'm passionate about

I'm a technologist at heart. I find my passion making the sum of parts a functioning whole, changing what people perceive of as possible and generally defying expectations.

An idea worth spreading

Protect the water- As an avid fisherman in both fresh and salt water I have seen all the ways we have impacted these ecologies. Whether walking on a fresh water bank or miles offshore, the damage is easy to find. We have massively polluted the oceans, over fished the most productive species, continue to brutally slaughter intelligent animals and leave our garbage everywhere. Take a look at what you're holding in your hand and think about where it is going to be in 1 day, 1 week or 1 year. Chances are part of it will be floating in the water.

Talk to me about

FISHING! Or being a geek, I can do both equally well. I love the way the greatest invention of my lifetime has torn down the barriers to communicating around the world.

People don't know that I'm good at

Cooking and gardening! I love to cook and grew up around gardens. Put the two of them together and you can end up with some amazing food!
