Persian Excursion

Change is fuel...

About Me


Does anyone actually read this section? I recently moved to Salt Lake from Miami...It's a drastic change but it's a nice break from the all the glitz and glamour and crackheads of Miami Beach. I chose Utah because I was inspired by the "Greatest Snow on Earth" and all the outdoor recreation that Utah has to offer. I measure success by conquering fears...I love adrenaline and I love new challenges. Aside from being a thrill seeker, I'm a pretty laid back person...That would be 1% of the time :)..In regards to that aspect of life we all love to hate: work, I live by the "work hard/play harder" philosophy..Along the way, I've made a few wise business decisions and I've made a few not-so-wise business decisions but today I'm reaping the fruits of labor and enjoying the ride.

My Interests


Having fun..If it ain't fun why bother? Vibin' to a good soul track. Taking unconventional excursions..I love the outdoors...Any extreme sport on the mountain or in the water, I'm there!..Hiking in Southern Utah..Canyonlands, Zion National Park, North Rim Grand Canyon, and Lake Powell. Machu Picchu , Patagonia, and the Canadian Rockies are on the agenda. I stay active by playing tennis, working out, and mountain biking on a regular basis. BBQ-ing Persian style with friends and family. Eating and cooking Thai Food . Investing in real estate, it's addicting.
