True Business is Always Personal

---

What can I say, I consider myself a jack of all trades, both in business and life in general.

I’ve ridden a camel in Morocco, taught English and ran with the bulls in Spain, always gotten the biggest kick out of watching cats play, aspire to be an everlasting know-it-all, and continually put the “man” in “romance.”

I'm an upstate NY transplant living in San Diego now and loving it! I did a bit of daydreaming about Cali before I came out, both big dreams and small. I’ve got a lot of lines in the water with various business ventures, and am extremely excited about those prospects. It means an incredible amount to me to be finally finding projects with which I can use my full skill set—something Derek has been very helpful with.

 

So yeah, I’m extremely motivated, but I make a strong point of playing hard too (sports, cards with the fellas, frisbee on the beach, museums, road trips, cooking, movies, dancing, writing, virtually anything social). So, now that I’m working with Derek and Scapes, I'd say my biggest dream yet to be realized is to find a girl who knocks my socks off every day, melding dream and reality. Know such a woman?

I aspire to write a successful novel, work to expand my knowledge and act on my potential every day, thoroughly look forward to bringing humor into people's daily lives, and work to improve myself both for myself and others.

People are my passion. I love that I have the potential to connect with thousands upon thousands of people through the Internet and beyond. I truly believe that everyone is a genius and they use their wisdom daily; some of you just may not realize it. Everyone has infinite potential and should make self-affirmations of such every day—you are all amazing!
