About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live life with passion, purpose and prosperity!

ABOUT ME

Not too keen when talking about myself so here we go.

I'm a traveling writer and "chef" in training. Looking to experience all the best of each cultures food and people. Huge fan of Mediterranean and Asian cuisine.

I was a professional DJ for Weddings, Corporate Events and Private Parties for 15 years before going full time as an audio visual technician (less stress). I also play guitar, bass and drums when I have time.

Enjoy a good comedy, cooking , meditation, skydiving (all-time adrenaline rush), traveling and helping people in general. Oh yeah, I'm an animal lover too. :)

PHILOSOPHY
Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away!
Every man dies, not every man truly lives!
Forget the people who did you wrong in the past, that's why they won't be a part of your future!
You can have everything you want in life when you help enough people get what they want!
