Save the world again? But I have not had my coffee yet!

About Me

From recent photo shoots-
Newcomers and old friends, welcome to my space!
This past year has been a whirlwind of adventures and opportunity with only a few moments of relaxation in between. I’ve met some amazing people here and in my recent travels, you know who you are…my most cherished friends. This past 6 months I’ve found myself in another beautiful land, Washington. With its majestic mountains, bountiful waters full of aquatic life and historical monuments. Let’s not forget the friendly people and their heritage. I am really enjoying life here and can’t wait to make more friends with skiing season rapidly approaching. See you on the slopes!
A lot of you have asked what I’ve been up to lately...I spent the past few years traveling by oceanographic research ship for a world renowned institute studying global climate change. I saw some amazing things crossing the world’s oceans, from underwater volcanoes off the coast of Hawaii to giant icebergs leaving the artic. Unfortunately global warming is not as mild as we thought, and I do my part to promote renewable energy and awareness any chance I get. Change happens, so let's be a part of it today.
You might find me up on Mt. Rainer (sister mountain to Mt. Fuji in Japan), fly fishing for salmon on a river, greased up and working on antique cars for a local museum, modeling for student art classes, meeting friends for coffee, doing a client photo shoot, working out or in the shop creating my latest invention. You never know!
---> Photo shoots and photography! I am available for shoots at just about any location. If you need a portfolio created/updated, comp card created, spice up your myspace or something intimate or errotic for that special someone, I am reasonably priced (most often trade for CD [TFCD]) and very creative with my work. I’ve been shooting now for 4 years and working with people to create and personify the image they want to portray. I have a many locations indoor and outdoor to choose from including a private studio (at an additional cost). So drop me a note and let’s talk!
Oh, and if you’re going to add me, please be so kind as to send me a message as to why, who and how. I enjoy meeting people, but would much rather have you introduce yourself properly.
Viva La San Diego...
To the friends I've left in San Diego, and without getting too sappy, I love and will miss you guys terribly. And I promise when I come back through San Diego (and I will), to let you know ahead of time. A huge piece of my heart stays there with you all. My fondest memories are nestled in my favorite hiking trails in the Laguna Mountains, Downtown, Balboa Park, the Sierras, Borrego Desert in the spring time, sailing on the bay, the Belly Up Tavern, my most cherished friends and Mexico. Ahhhh Mexico...

My Interests

Photography (everything on my page, are my own shots), hiking & backpacking, camping, art, traveling, technology, fishing, movie days at home, music, oceanography, most anything to do with science *takes a deep breath*, sleeping in on the weekends, working on classic cars or fixing things, space, do-it-yourself projects, inventing, shopping, dancing, meeting new people, daydreaming, finding new ways to wear my wardrobe and driving way too fast…

I'd like to meet:

Intelligent and fun people, who are ‘local’ for hiking, dining, dancing, movies, travel, camping, hanging out, social functions and of course photo shoots.

Music:

80's, grunge, 90's, techno, jazz, hip-hop, some country, Latin, just about everything except rap. I worked in radio right out of high school, so I love everything 80's. Partied like a rock star till the 'man' shut the station down. Long live live radio...

Movies:

All of the Pirates of the Car., Buckaroo Banzai, Amelie, El Postino, An Inconvenient Truth, The Music Man, Cronicles of Riddick, The Fifth Element, The Secret, Nacho Libre, There's something about Mary, Total Recall, Zoolander, Master and Commander, The Legend of 1900, Rob Roy, The English Patient, the list goes on...

Television:

Everything Sci-Fi, SG-1, Atlantis, Hero's, Discovery Channel, History Channel, PBS and Block Buster rentals with popcorn a beer and the dogs curled up on the couch next to me. Most sports when the home team is playing and Scrubs still puts me in stitches. Hey Mr. Murdoch, thanks for myspace! ;D

The Hitchiker

Jacques Cousteau

Books:

Read? I could make the time, but I'd rather put on boots and hit the trail with a friend or two! There's just way too much to explore, and so little time! Though, I am caught on occasion with my nose glued to the California Hiker's Guide book or a nice downtown restaurant menu. Ok...truthfully, my favorite book is the Internet. Or as I call it, The Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy.

Going vertical in Joshua Tree

Irish Whiskey

Heroes:

My father, who pulled a Gump in Viet Nam and has many more dear friends to this day because of his selfless acts and his devotion to family and friends. He continues to fight on today for peoples rights in the American workplace.
Grandpa for his ingenuity and firm sense of community. He flew mail, medical supplies and food to snowbound farming families during the great depression at his own expense. He also worked in San Diego during the 50's as a designer and test pilot meeting regularly with Howard Huges to trade ideas and stories.

Hereos to me are anyone who dedicates their passions and energy to family, peace, humanities, the sciences, art, a charitable cause or paticipating in making this planet a better world for the next gen.

My Father. ;)
My Grandfather
Captain Jacques Yves Cousteau
The man with the Swiss Army knife, MacGyver. *click the pic to watch the video*
