I started my first Bicycle Tour on January 15 of 2012 with a Bicycle, Bike trailer, 200 dollars in my pocket, no experience doing any sort of long distance, multi-day, cycling, and limited camping experience. I made it to 30 states in one year and three months; I saw every state in the Northeast region and crossed the United States in an east/west fashion 2½ times, not to mention the two plus times I directed my travels North and South.
The success of this trip Made me do a second tour; This time of the Western US. I started this tour on March 15, 2014, again starting in Los Angeles and traversed 8 states, going from L.A. to Las Vegas; Salt Lake City; Missoula, Montana; Seattle; and finishing off in Portland, Oregon. I had the luck of having people that were willing to sponsor me such as my friends at The Bike Oven, and The Flying Pigion Los Angeles, my local Bicyle Shop.

My total visited state count is now 36, and all on two, human-powered wheels. I am always looking to network with people who tour or would like to support my touring efforts. I also Love it when people just want to find out about my tour! My tours are completely self sustained and with an open route and Time Schedule.

Now I am in an attempt to find my lifes career path, using all I have learned from my tours and general life. I feel as if I am a "Jack of all Trades" type of guy. I have built bicycles from the ground up, fabricated racks and water resistant frame bags of my own design, and adjusted designs of each after strenuous testing. I've also worked in restaurants and As a Youth Outreach Coordinator. I now work in a grocery store.
