About me

Born in the mountains

I can’t remember a time in my childhood when we weren’t on skis, hiking, or biking. My parents have a deep love of the outdoors

Educated in China

But I grew restless in a small town and eventually moved to Hangzhou, China.

Working here and there

After a decade in China, I got a “normal” job that has taken me around the world.

With my girls in tow

Wherever possible, I take my two doxies with me on my adventures.

寧其死為留骨而貴乎？寧其生而曳尾於塗中乎？…吾將曳尾於塗中。

Would you rather be dead in box, honored at court, or be alive dragging one’s tail through the mud? … I would rather be dragging my tail through the mud.
