About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Move the World to Theory... Everything Works in Theory!

ABOUT ME

Well I grew up playing soccer/futball and was actively involved in many sports. I went to Texas Tech University, Go Raiders!, and graduated in May 2010 with a Batchelors of Science in Petroleum Engineering and minor in Mechanical Engineering. I moved to Victoria, TX where I worked for 3 years and now I work in West Africa (Angola) for Halliburton. Over the last 3 years we lived in Barcelona for almost a year where we travelled the world every other month. Since then we have moved back to Arlington, TX. I work a rotating schedule so Month on Month off. I am leaving my status as accepting guest but if I am on my month of work I will not be able to host. If you are interested in visiting let me know and if I am home I would love to host!

I love hobbies! I have been scuba diving since I was 13, work with salt water aquariums, picked up painting for the hell of it, looking to get sky diving license and my next mission is always right around the corner. I am a Master Mason or Free mason if you will. I also enjoy, working out, hiking, rock climbing, music, reading, and of course TRAVELING!

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for a reason. There are no mistakes.

Also paragliding off the Alps mountains was fun!
