----- My Profile ---------------

My History

I was raised in California where I went to college receiving my degree in Business. While in college I took web design courses supplementing my education. Out of college I worked for Pacific Web a design firm where I really learned design concepts, and search engine analysis and placement. Pacific Web was probably my favorite job as we all got along great and my best work memories are from there. In 2000 I moved to Florida, where I have been ever since. While here I have been studying Spanish and am quite adept at the language but not fluent. My Spanish is good enough as I went to Spain with a friend who knows no Spanish, and we were quite fine with my understanding of the language.

My Work

My first job ever was at 13 I delivered flyers for a pizza restaurant after school and now I am VP of Sales & Marketing at CashRegisterStore.com. The job is good as I get a fair amount of vacation time and a decent measure of freedom. On the side and if I have the time, I design websites for friends or other businesses that find me and want them. If you want to see some of my web work click here.

My favorite financial hobby is buying and selling stock. It's actually quite fun! I love to buy stocks low and watch them come up, and sell them for a profit or in other words channeling the stock. I'm usually never in long enough for the dividends. Now the market is so crazy with many industries tanking that due to the risk and to my limited knowledge, I am more cautious in how much I invest of time and money into it now.

My Hobbies

Traveling, especially international travel is by far my favorite form of recreation. I love leaving the US and traveling to other countries and experiencing everything from their culture, food, architecture and natural beauty. When it comes to traveling, I can really relate to Anthony Bourdain from the Travel Channel. It's good to really get absorbed in where you travel to really experience it. I have traveled to Europe, Latin America, Caribbean islands and throughout the USA. Europe is by far my favorite destination, although the most expensive. I love the Mediterranean! The scenery is gorgeous, the weather dry and warm, and the Mediterranean cuisine delicious. Plus, for example, the history and ancient architecture such as in Rome or Athens is amazing.

Other interests that I have are skiing, wakeboarding, spelunking, cliff diving and anything adventurous with a thrill. For instance, I loved using the zip lines to traverse the canopy in the Costa Rican jungles.

Another form of vacation that I like when funds are low is cruising. No I do not love cruising for the gluttonous feasting and non-stop entertainment. I actually enjoy the peace and tranquility of being out at sea. All you can see is an infinity of varying hues of blue, clouds, the fresh air and the feel of the sea breezes. I love sitting up on the highest deck just relaxing and taking it in.
