I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

.. My name is Glenn. Aside from the normal things like movies, music, dining out, dancing, going to clubs, hanging out, and all that, I enjoy several hobbies such as jet skiing, swimming, wake boarding, SCUBA diving.. anything wet! Oh yeah, also snowboarding and fast cars.

I love to travel, and I am fascinated by different cultures. I get to do a lot of travelling with my career already, but its not the same as taking a real vacation.

On the active side, I have a strong lifelong passion for martial arts. I study and teach Kenpo Karate, and kickboxing. I have also studied Jiu-Jitsu, and have actively competed in full-contact (w/leg kicks) kickboxing in the past. Record 5-1-1 w/ 4 KOs. Although I long to climb back into the ring, now a days, I only find myself with enough time to pass what I have learned on to others. Not the same as being in the ring, but helping others improve provides me with an internal satisfaction just the same.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


I am very content with where I am in life. I live in Austin Texas. My wife is someone who knows what I am thinking without having to ask, who shares the same dreams and goals. She is truly my better half and through her eyes I am reminded everyday that the world can remain innocent and beautiful if you only let yourself see it. Recently, my son was brought into this world making it a brighter place to live, I'll never be the same.... I cannot describe it and unless you have a child, you can not completely understand the emotions and feeling.

I am also always open to meeting new friends, especially in the Austin area. Abe Lincoln once said, "The better part of one's life consists of the friendships they make". Say hello sometime.
