We all love a good story, especially our own. Why then, do we let our pens lay dry next to empty notebooks? 

The world deserves our sequels.  We seldom take time to share what we've accomplished, seen, and dreamed with the world. This must change for all of us, and certainly had to change for me.

In the summer of 2015, I left New York City, my friends at Squarespace, and the abundant comforts of a stable life to travel the Southeast quarter of the world.

If I couldn't find my new story, it would find me.

I listened to surreal birdsong, hiking through New Zealand's archaic forests. Sampled every bit of Malaysia's true melting pot of foods and people. Became quite sick and skipped Myanmar. Celebrated Christmas with Thai dinner, followed by fireworks over "The Final Countdown". Sipped smoothies and got a manicure through a planned power outage in Cambodia. Held hands over rocks, giggling with our Hmong guide through Vietnam's foggy rice terraces.

They were right: it changes you. Inspiration is all around, but it's up to us to pull it from the air and create something beautiful.

So here I am.

When traveling, I'm always enamored with the entrepreneurial spirit of our various hosts and favorite haunts.

Full beds, stomachs, and hearts determined their quality of life, not full pocketbooks. Making ends meet and giving—not selling—their soul while doing it.

Enriching the lives of others through meaningful work is paramount in our personal and professional lives. Whether a side project, a new business endeavor, or simply showing the world a new version of yourself, the ideas we kick around deserve new legs.

My vision?

To be the difference maker for yourself or your business.

I've pledged myself to help give the upper hand to individuals and young professionals looking to begin a new career or personal endeavor. To ensure artists and musicians can focus on creating, instead of swimming against a tide of rapidly-changing technologies to share their life's work. I'm dreaming of solutions for micro and small businesses, the new "mom and pop" stores, which deserve an appropriate storefront online to serve a new era of digital customers.

It's my goal to live a full life. Full of creative pursuits, of travel, and of the outdoors.

If I had my way, I'd make my living shooting photos and writing, hopping around the globe for a few months here and there. It's a common dream—one I'm thankful to already have lived. The bug is real.

Colorado, though, is America's great paradise. I'm fortunate to call it home. Aside from its obvious natural beauty, life here is easy and Boulder an inspiring city. If I'm not in the mountains, I'm riding Boulder's paths to the next coffee date, or to get fresh ingredients for legendary home-cooked dinners.

I've found a return to the passions I spent time honing as a child.

I've always made music, and am finally reunited with the entirety of my equipment after twenty years of collecting it. My high school songwriting partner, Mike, lives close by.

Through photography, I'm able to enjoy and share the world as my muse. It combines my love of nature with encouragement for others to see it for themselves.

Design allows me this platform to share myself and my story with the world. It also allows me to give to my community, by telling yours.
