About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Generally have a good time, see as much of the world as I can, and rock the party.

ABOUT ME

I love soccer, futbol, football, voetbal, whatever it's called. I work a lot during the week , so I cherish my free time on the weekends. I travel a lot within the northeastern U.S. I go to New York City at least once a month and I try to get to Boston and Vermont whenever I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Leisure rules.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have been met with hostility in several countries for the simple fact that I am an American. So I would like to, if possible, change at least one persons opinion that we are all crass, rude, loud, and obnoxious.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good trip to the capital of New York!
