About Me

I live in San Clemente on the cliffs above the ocean with my cats Zero and Skittles. I surf every day that I can and don't play enough guitar. I work in the Orange County area doing Real Estate Appraisals, as well as photography on the side. I like long naps on the couch, surfing after sunset, traveling when I don't have to do the driving, cooking when someone else will clean up, and girls with a sense of humor.
