I was born in Grangeville, Idaho and moved to Portland at a young age. I split time between Idaho and Oregon as a kid before I attended Oregon State University. From there I went to OHSU and graduated in 2009. My mother and two older sisters here in the Portland area and we spend quite a bit of time together playing games, watching football, and hanging out. My girlfriend's name is Jessi Marcoff and we have a little dog named Pixie.
