About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Escaping the rule of Corporate America and discovering life at its roots with my beautiful and wonderful girlfriend Dana.

ABOUT ME

I am first generation Hispanic, born to a hardworking Cuban exile father and a wonderful, loving and extreme caretaking Dominican mother. I guess you could say I am a Cubanicano. I have a wonderful and beautiful GF who loves life, travel and people just as much as I do. We are currently traveling South America and upon return to the US will be relocating to San Francisco, CA. We'd be happy to host you if possible! Dana and I love to bust a move and get funky. I am very laid back, easy going and get along with most people. For the most part I'm always smiling, telling stories and enjoying good company.

PHILOSOPHY

Live the life you love - love the life you live.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm a modest guy ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

"We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel when we should be using Natures inexhaustible sources of energy — sun, wind and tide. ... I'd put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don't have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that," - Thomas Edison 1931!
