CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy everything, help others, and take it all in while finding my place.

ABOUT ME

I'm awfully laid back. I like to venture out and constantly be discovering something new. Whether it be new scenery, a new restaurant, a new perspective, or a new golf course.

I like to be active...if it involves hand-eye or foot-eye coordination of any kind, I'm game for it. I like to have a few beers and put my feet in the water.

I have had a few experiences that completely reshaped my outlook on life. Namely two: Working at a children's residence shelter, and a deployment to Iraq. I have always had a passion for service, but those two experiences really blazed a direction in life for me - Changing career paths to work directly with the under served and impoverished.

PHILOSOPHY

Leave it better than you found it.

Musica, film e libri

I could watch Nicolas Cage flicks all day and still want to rewind. The man gets it! In a very ironic sort of way.

I enjoy country music and older rock (Tom Petty, Bob Seger...) mostly, but will happily listen to anything.

I'm reading John Irving right now. I will give anything a shot though. Stephen King, David Sedaris...

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Being in Iraq for seven months - Being a witness to such catastrophe and triumph of the human spirit.
