Mr. Stuart Potter

I was born here in Colorado Springs and have lived here all my life. I have traveled to many other states and countries, but the Springs will always be my home. I have many pets: a Uromastyx lizard named Rufus, two axolotls named Jynx and Chancy, and a 12-foot Burmese python named Ganon. While I have had all of them for a long time, my favorite baby is my daughter, Willow. She's two and keeps me very busy making pancakes and reading books. Sometimes she'll come with me on my outdoor adventures as I go camping, kayaking, fishing, and being lazy in a hammock. When I'm not outside, I can be found playing Dungeons & Dragons or Magic the Gathering with friends. I love all nerd culture and will be happy to talk your ear off about any of it.
