INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE
Photographs should show the life of the race, not just the race.
CAREER & LIFE CHALLENGES
I spent 2 years as an Air Force Medivac Medic in South Asia. I’ve never done anything more scary in my life and the challenges we faced were some of the most difficult in my life. After being in that situation for 2 years, almost everything I encounter today isn’t really that big of a deal. So I just don’t get upset about things very often.
FIRST SPECIAL VEHICLE
