His first time out of the country was in 2008 when he travelled to Peru to race in the Great River Amazon Raft Race.

Esther is reflective, sharp, and has a great sense of humor. She’s the person you’d want around in a crisis- she’d be casually problem solving, drawing on Encyclopedia knowledge and keeping calm.
