I am originally from Connecticut, but I spent a lot of time in Long Island growing up. I recently moved to Oahu after finishing college in San Diego.

I was a launch boat captain back in Long Island, and I am looking to upgrade my captains license here in Honolulu. I studied International Relations at USD, so I would love to do some international consulting for a business that does most of its work in Asia or Latin America. I'm trying to work as a Captain for the time being while I look for the right avenue to use my diploma. At the moment my knowledge of the ocean and vessels is the best way for me to make money. Not to mention I enjoy being on the water.

Currently working as a surf instructor in waikiki. I feel more like a chairlift or a tugboat because I chase people around Pops and tow them out to the break and back out after every wave. I'd like to think that I am Ambassador of Stoke, and have the privilege of getting paid to get other people stoked. And maybe, just maybe, get myself a little stoked.

Living the dream.

Many notice my beard since it is located on my chin. But I guess my friendly demeanor? I feel like that is a lame thing to say, but I like to think that I am a warm person that treats everyone the same. But to tell the truth probably my voice. Raised on the east coast with family from Long Island and New Jersey, I had to speak up to get heard. Things get loud with the fam, happens. It's also a deep voice that carries. I struggle at whispering.

I could go on and on with music but currently I'm exploring some deep house tracks. Trying to find new hip hop and older albums that I should have listened too. Been finding some more soulful jams that I've been digging too. Funk is so good. Blasted an earth wind and fire slow jam in my car yesterday with the windows down in traffic. FM radio was on it's game that day

My family, my iphone, my dogs, my surfboard, my car, and my friends.

I could do without the board or iphone, but to be real, losing those would blow.

Ready to go out around town and share a few drinks with my friends and any other good company I can find. I am more of a bar person than a club person, but I can be convinced to go to a club on the special occasion. On friday nights, I look for a cold brew, good company, and a place that is chill that supplies me with both of those.

Thats not always the case though!! This past friday I surfed all afternoon. Came home and started re-watching Game of Thrones and playing the drinking game with my two friends. I made it through one episode before fading and falling asleep. My two friends proceded to stack things on top of me and document their towers. I woke to multiple boxes and other things falling on my face. I got up, got another beer, and proceeded to watch more game of thrones. Tyrion, you're ma boy!! and khaleesi all i gotta say is those dragons better be fully grown and kicking ass come season 3, just saying.

I have really long "pointer toes" (just google it and it's called second toe or long toe) and believe me mine are long. The one my left foot is longer than my big toe and rather bulbous at the end. It is stubbed often and has brought my entire body down to the ground while I was running barefoot. Meaning that a singular long weird toe was able to trip me.

If you're not afraid to get epic on the reg
