Outside of work, my two biggest hobbies are hiking, mountain biking, gardening and mixology. I picked up these interests while living in Mammoth, but I have branched out and hike and bike in other locales as well. I am also an aviation geek and will eventually find a photo to represent that. Airports are a zen place for me (yeah I know), and I spend way too much time on airplanes.
During the summer, you can usually find me riding my bike at the Mammoth Bike Park or on other Eastern Sierra trails.

| After a minor crash. | The best part of hiking is wildlife. Lillium parvus, Eastern Sierra tiger lily. |

| Rainbow Falls with an actual rainbow. | Lots of connections with the Pacific Crest Trail and John Muir Trails. |

| Scotland is one of my two favorite places on Earth. This is the countryside just outside Craigievar Castle, Aberdeenshire. | Hawaii is the other, any island really. This is Waimea Beach Park on Oahu. Someday we will travel again. |
