About

I'm a recent college graduate with a Mechanical Engineering degree and the eventual goal of finding a job within the theme park industry. Although my theme park travels used to be restricted to California, in recent years I've had the opportunity to visit parks in other parts of the US as well as a couple in other countries. I've currently been to around 80 theme and amusement parks of various sizes and ridden over 400 different roller coasters.
