CURRENT MISSION

Traveling with my family and friends, making great memories

ABOUT ME

Adventurer who loves riding the highs and lows of travel. I love to go out, but I'm up for chilling, great food, and meeting people from all walks of life. I have lots of stories to tell and would love to hear yours. For the last few years I have been shooting short films and am now doing these for couples and families as cherished keepsakes.

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe diem with minimal collateral damage

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Seeing a picture of my corn-fed red-headed boss shaking Mikhail Gorbachev's hand at an IT conference in Dubai

2. Getting wined and dined by an actor who used to play a superhero

3. Being ON stage before a Maroon5 concert.

4. Water fight at camp in South Korea

5. Going to the club then taking a walk on the beach in winter

6. Walking through Philly at night, noticing things you miss in daylight

7. Hearing stories from a piano player who used to tour with Glenn Miller's band way back when

8. Being in potential danger but coming out all right with a great story (so many times)

9. Skiing in the Pyrenees with the gods

10. Listening to a Harley rider talk for hours, starting out saying how motorcycle guys are sweethearts, ending sometime after saying he'd almost bludgeoned a guy to death with a tire iron

11. My one and only bar fight that lasted all of 20 seconds

Teach, Learn, Share

Just do it! Take risks, but be mostly sober when you're doing it. Then you'll have a great set of memories.
