Overview
About Me
In 2011, I sold off almost everything to pursue my dream of traveling the world. I traveled for 4.5 months throughout Europe and made a side trip to Jordan.
Then, I came back to Memphis and resumed my work as a photographer. I've also gone back to school and have second career as a licensed massage therapist who mainly focuses on therapeutic and sports massage.
I also met my lovely wife and we were married in the spring of 2015. Our hosting schedule is limited as the step children are usually here Monday through Friday.
We live in the suburbs, but have easy access to downtown and midtown as well as the interstate.
"Once in a while it really hits people that they don't have to experience the world in the way they have been told to."
