Interests

Apart from work, I enjoy most of my time being outdoors. Throughout the year, I am an avid runner and novice boulderer. During the warmer months here in California, I enjoy hiking, camping, and exploring our great outdoors.

When forced indoors, I follow a number of sci-fi and fantasy genre movies and television shows, I am an aspiring chef, and I spend a large amount of my free time exploring the latest technology advancements in the IT world.
