Hobbies & Interests
Digital Media
I love developing for the web using web standards and pushing myself deep into Ruby code. I love it so much that it has become a hobby and I am constantly developing and designing on my own time. In fact I consider any kind of Digital Media creation to be a hobby, whether it’s editing a video with Final Cut, to Developing a simple web application in Rails, it’s a hobby to me.
Sports and Outdoor Activities
Outside of my computer life I’m an avid Golfer, I hold multiple amateur course records at local clubs and have a scratch handicap. I also love fishing, camping, traveling, sports, music, biking, surfing and snowboarding. If there is powder or waves, I’m there.
