Personal Interests

I live in Seattle, USA, with my wife and two young kids. I get inspiration and energy from consistent meditation practice, gratitude rituals, morning time with kids, piano lessons, strength training, and tennis games. I express my creativity through photography and visual graphic design. While traveling, I enjoy exploring local adventure sports such as snowmobiling and zip-lining.
