Occupation: Software Engineer
Fun Fact: I've picked up 10 different programming languages over the course of my career. If I rode as many miles as I write lines of code, the Century Ride would probably be a lot easier! Reason for Riding: I train because I want to live a long and healthy life. I ride for Esopus because I think camp is a gift that gives us the opportunity to provide something for those who are less fortunate than we are. Favorite Thing about Esopus: It's a very unique and positive community that brings out the best in people. |
