I’ve been involved with the SCA since 1999, when I participated in my first High School Crew in Ouachita National Forest, Arkansas. I consider that year the ‘Big Bang’ of my existence. One might say my life has been defined and guided by that initial happenstance. As I approach my 10,593rd day of existence on this planet, I’ve come to a precipice of realizations. There are two things I draw the most satisfaction from: The first is travel, especially to new places. I have discovered that no matter where you are, there is something to be learned, revealed, and drawn from the beauty all about us; be it the place, the people, or both. The second is just plain hard work. After several SCA crews, and my time at Sterling College in northern Vermont, this bell rings the loudest. I’m honored and stoked for another chance to be a part of the SCA experience again, and look forward to more adventures on the western horizon!
