Introduction I live life for today since there is no guarantee for tomorrow and yesterday is past. I love to find new places to explore on foot, by bike, in a car and new ways to explore such as by motorcycle or plane. I've dreamed of getting a pilot license but decided on motorcycles instead; cheaper, quite fun, and more accessible. I am into new challenges, mentally and physically. There is nothing more exhilarating than pushing your personal limits! Whether I'm downhill skiing, going down a fun road in the WRX, or riding the bike- I'm typically going at a pretty good clip hence my tag line "Speed Fever". For example, I've been told by the Forest Service, riding down the SFe ski basin road, to slow down. Spending time outdoors and traveling are especially gratifying. A few of the places I've been: France, Bahamas, Hawaii, and Jasper. Places I plan to visit: New Zealand, Italy, India/Nepal, and Alaska. My vices: chocolate, coffee, and wine. I truly appreciate the diversity of our world and how much more there is to know and explore.
