Hobbies
I have been very passionate about rock climbing and highlining for the past 6 years. It has fundamentally helped me learn about how anchors are built as well as forces applied to the system.
Living in the Black Hills all my life I've grown quite a fondness to hiking and bushwhacking. Discovering new locations and getting lost in the Hills and its beauty, to go deeper into the woods and finding a way back.
I have enjoyed martial arts on and off for about 12 years, receiving a fourth degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. It has taught me true dedication and perseverance when times are difficult.
