Rath Jessen

Rath was born and raised in Tacoma Washington but has been all over the states. He is constantly searching for places to go and adventures to have. When he is not road-tripping or camping, you might find him in a record shop or second-hand clothing store searching for old things to give new life to. He loves The Grateful Dead and is a self proclaimed Dead Head. He likes to play cards, especially cribbage, and enjoys skiing, fly fishing, rock climbing, kayaking and pretty much any sport you can do outside. He even bought a sailboat last summer and is learning to sail it - slowly but surely. Rath has a deep connection and love for the ocean, specifically the Puget Sound; the smell of salt water and low tide is one of his favorites. He also has a passion for sustainable living and travel. Someday Rath would like to be able to feed himself with things he generates from his own property while having an entirely off-the-grid house.
