I'm just a boy lost in his twenties, living in Michigan, saving the world one wetland at a time.
grew up in the Chicago area
I have two younger sisters and a golden retriever
graduated from Calvin College in 2012
My degree is in Environmental Science
so yes, I am a science geek, I am partial to physical sciences and plant biology
I like playing pond hockey, soccer, and ultimate frisbee
I love most genres of music but Led Zeppelin, and anything Jack White related are my favorites.
My truck is my most prized possession. I travel a lot, so she's really my refuge and my home on wheels.
Though I am city grown, I'm a country boy at heart. There's nothing better than working hard outside, to earn a buck or two. I need the cool breeze, the light of sun, and some dirt in my finger nails. Plus, have you ever enjoyed a beer like you do after a hard days work?
What I'm doing with my life
I am working for an environmental consulting and restoration firm. My job has kind of been my first step after college. It's been good, and there seems to be room to advance at the moment. I'm always thinking about my next step, but for now I'm fortunate enough to be happy and financially sustainable where I am.
Beyond the foreseeable future... I have no idea! just gotta keep making money I guess. Maybe start a business or something. This is America after all..
Favouritest of all the things
Music festivals... They're the best weekends of the whole year! New music, old music, classics, favorites, new discoveries, boy o boy and the community of just celebrating life and music with 1000s of strangers for a few days in the sun where we leave our worries and responsibilities behind us for a while.
and of course...
the new friends, old friends, cold beer, delicious food
My darkest secret
catchthewindseeuspin doesn't think they have any secrets, but we all know about that one time right? ;)
