• Chasing Waterfalls & Alt Summit

    I spent the weekend without internet or cell service in a super rural part of Pennsylvania (like, even more rural than where I grew up, which is saying something).

  • Life Lately

    It seems I’ve taken a bit of an unplanned break from this space, but I’ve been wanting to get back into it! I blinked and April was gone. It was kind of a weird month for me, and I’m not sad to see it go. After returning from Texas Style Council, the real world felt…
