Light bulb moment:

Life became ten times easier the day I realized it was okay to say "I'm not sure but I'll get back to you.

Job title I wish I had:

Owner & Head Coach of SUR-FIT Costa Rica. We deliver epic vacation experiences that combine surfing and fitness.

If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life:

Crackers. Any type, any size, any flavour.

Best place I’ve ever been:

In the late 90s I worked for a mountain bike racing company. I remember standing in a lush green meadow in the middle of the Canadian Rockies in July with peaks towering over me thinking, I can’t believe I have a job that will pay me to be in such a place!
