Clint Requa is a twenty-seven-year-old water treatment operator and connoisseur of the inadvisable. He has been an avid urban explorer for almost a decade, finding his way into long-abandoned mines and empty hospital corridors all over the Golden State. When he isn’t inhaling the crisp, fresh air found only in the bowels of a Superfund site, Clint enjoys building and racing cars, swimming, hiking, reading, woodworking, and anything else that might keep a young man’s mind distracted when he’s too cheap to pay for cable. He lives on the sunny Central Coast of California with his fiancé and their four cats.
