Favorite Quote: Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth -- more than ruin -- more even than death.... Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man. Bertrand Russell
The Perfect Day: A rope, a rack, a thousand feet of granite, and a partner who knows how to suffer with a smile.

Dream Vacation: A month in Bali with a shortboard and a solid 8 ft swell.
What I do when I'm not at AAVE: I work at a group home in South Lake Tahoe with troubled teenage boys. I take them rock climbing, mountain biking, and snowboarding and in general try to show them a lifestyle thats fun and exciting without drugs or crime.
