Passionate and Determined

I have a passion for the outdoors as well as technology. My determination to push through during long treks carries over to my work where I put 110% of my effort into doing the best job I can. I strive to learn new things whenever possible and push myself in my personal and professional endeavors. Whether hiking up a mountain or sitting in front of a computer, I refuse to balk at a challenge and face problems head-on.
