Where I come from:   A surfer boy and a country bumpkin.  A Naval Pilot and a business owner.  A quiet guy and a talkative woman.  My parents are my role models.  I have lived in Virginia Beach, VA my entire life. I've been raised to appreciate the little things in life and never take anyone or anything for granted.  I believe a good deed will go a long way.  And, if there is ever a chance to help someone; no hesitation.

While being the captain of the tennis team, I discovered that the ability to adjust to new circumstances was a crucial skill for leaders and an important competency for my emotional intelligence.
