Welcome To My World

Ever since I can remember (or at least since college) I've had the desire to seek adventure and the fortune (figuratively, not literally) to make many of those desires happen. Doors open and close in our lives and I had an amazingly colorful door open to Adventure Racing in the year 2000.

Before that, I had always (or at least since college) wanted to be a screenwriter and make films. I've written a number of screenplays and have helped others with their projects. And I've made some short films and hope to make documetaries and feature films soon enough.

My world is filled with some pretty cool tales of adventure and I present this blog as a mere beginning to many things to come.

I try to take it in stride when my friends and family say that I'm an inspiration. I just like to think that I'm living the way I want to live and doing my own 'normal' things. If anything here can spur just one person to take some positive action, get outside of normal 'boundaries', think about our world differently, or just smile... then it's all worth it.
