Growing up along the picturesque West Coast of Florida, my love affair with saltwater fishing was ignited, and I seized every opportunity to be out on the water. Today, that love endures, albeit with a twist – now I embark on fishing adventures from my trusty Hobie kayak.

I harbor a profound passion for fishing and hold a deep commitment to the conservation of our precious waterways. As a proud member and tournament committee participant in one of the world’s oldest fishing clubs, The West Palm Beach Fishing Club, I’ve earned recognition by clinching numerous angling categories in their annual contests. Remarkably, I came tantalizingly close to seizing the prestigious Angler of the Year title, competing solely from my kayak, while the rest of the field favored flats boats and center consoles.

As a veteran of the United States Army, I’ve dedicated my time and efforts to volunteer with various charitable kayak organizations, including Hero’s on the Water, where I serve as a guide, offering support whenever it’s needed.
