I grew up in Connecticut, went to school in Boston, moved to Dallas [in search of warmer weather], and now reside in Seattle and love it here. I own/run a bicycle repair shop in Seattle, it's been open for two years now and still going well. In my free time, I enjoy cycling, swimming, climbing, hiking, scuba diving, camping and snowboarding. I'm about to study paragliding and can't wait to start.Good coffee, beer, wine are all important to me. I'm always looking out for new coffee shops [or breweries], let me know if you have any suggestions!
