CURRENT MISSION

Completing my MBA Marketing degree.

ABOUT ME

The most sophisticated cracker that will ever meet. Very well rounded and typically put others first. Most always up for a good chat.
A Florida Boy through and through. While the beach is the place for me, always enjoy a break to the mountains. A little bit county in a 3 piece suit.
High respect for those that practice sustainable living. Used to raise chickens. Member of Rare Fruit Council here and enjoy sharing growing tips. Enjoy making my own wine

PHILOSOPHY

If happiness is you goal, than you most likely never find it.

The faster you run, the quicker you passed your planned destination.

Strangers are just family that you are yet to meet.

Teach, Learn, Share

Those with experiences or steady hands. Have been in a place for generations and know the land and culture better than any books could scribe. Those that a still new to an area an appreciate it's unique beauty.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I simple place near the beach. An easy walk across the street. Nice bike ride to the Lagoon or to the inlet if you like.
