Interests
I'm a huge skiier and I've been lucky enough to ski in some of the most beautiful places in the world. Top resorts: Big Sky, MT | Jay Peak, VT | Alta, UT | Aspen Highlands, CO | Hakuba Valley, Japan
You can probably tell I love the mountains by now. My wife and I developed a love of hiking during our time together in Vermont. This is us in Torres Del Paine National Park, Patagonia, Chile. Highly reccomend the W Trek Loop.
I grew up cooking with my father as a child and enjoy the art and science behind it. I really love hosting and cooking for others and I'm just a big foodie in general. My wife will tell you she loves me for my personality and good looks but we all know the truth, it's the food! Best restaurant meal: Le Bernadin, prix fixe with wine pairing. Warning - do not drink before this meal as the pours are generous.
Proudly built with Strikingly.
