No, my mom did not give me the middle name Tarzan. I got it on the Appalachian Trail.

I grew up in rural Indiana, was employee of the month at McDonald’s in 2001, graduated with a business degree, became the youngest President of the Rotary Club of Santa Barbara, and was on track to be a successful ‘young professional’.

In 2012 I quit my job, hiked the Appalachian Trail, decided I didn’t want to go back to being ‘normal’, moved into my car, built a freelance marketing income, and in 2015 set out to see the world as a homeless digital nomad.

Since then I’ve been traveling full-time in my camper, on foot, by bus, bicycle, train and plane, working from wherever I can find dependable wifi and chasing warm weather, sunshine and AntiComfortable adventures.
