Unfortunately, nothing within my purview gave me reason to believe that was remotely possible, so I suppressed it and looked to academics and sports to guide me into my future.

Surprisingly, this small coastal town, gave me an entirely different perspective on life. It allowed me to take my head off that swivel of potential danger and focus on even bigger dreams.

I experienced a high level of success in corporate and non-profit arenas, which opened the door to the dream of Entrepreneurship. I owned and operated a few companies for over 20 years, giving me the opportunity to travel to many parts of the World, connecting with prominent clients, colleagues and making new friends along the way.
