About

My career has been guided by a passion for channeling the power of technology to drive social impact and change. When I'm not building the future of impactful financial services, you can find me: -Advising new startups/non profits (pro-bono consultant) -Chasing the light to get a great shot - Patagonia has republished some of my photography on several occasions. -Rowing on our world's rivers and lakes (I was a dual-sport Division 1 athlete in volleyball and rowing and later competed as an elite rower training alongside members of the US National Team) -Swimming, Biking, and Running (I'm an ironman triathlete and ultrarunner) -Summiting the world's peaks (have seen the sunrise from Mt Rainier, Kilimanjaro, Khuiten (Mongolia's highest peak! with more on the horizon) -Waving at sealife 100 feet below (advanced scuba diver) -Adventuring across and advocating for this world we call home and the beautiful people in it (I've taught English in Northeastern Iraq along the Iranian border)
