CURRENT MISSION

To respect others and to show that no matter where we come from, we are all very similar inside.

ABOUT ME

I live alone but am a father of one beautiful nine year old boy. I like to play just about any sport. I train in Krav Maga. I'm very laid back and like to hang out and relax at home when I am not out running around with my son.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have travelled a bit and always try to rent a car or travel through the local part of anywhere I go. I have always been interested in the local flavor, styles and mannerisms. It intrigues me to see how others live and play in the atmosphere they grew up in and how different but similar we all are.

Snowmobiled high in the San Juan Mtns in Colorado, Skied at Teluride, Scuba dove at St. Thomas, Hawaii, Mexico, Aruba. Cliff dove in Hawaii, Had a helluva good time in Amsterdam. Haggled the locals in Mexico, Ran into a Large Baracuda in Mexico O-O. Drove on a scavanger hunt through Maui, Rode a horse up a volcano in Maui, Hiked through the rain forrest in Puerto Rico.
