I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am a Firefighter/Paramedic.It is my passion and I love every minute I'm doing it. Otherwise, I stay busy at the gym and with friends. I feel that staying healthy and in good shape is essential to my sanity as well as my job performance, not just to try to look good.It's tough not to get lumped into the "Meathead" category when you go to the gym a lot, but when I was little I was the bird-chested bucktooth kid, so I never forget where I came from. =) I am pretty straightforward and laid back, but on occasion, I have a few beers with friends and get a little crazy. I bartend for private functions and work part time in a Wine bar. I grew up in South Florida, which comes attached with a stigma of being fake. I was raised right and will be real, even if it's not what you want to hear. I don't say things just to be blunt, but my bull*hit tolerance is low.There are people that contribute to your life and people that take away. I am only concerned with surrounding myself with the former. I have found that common courtesy is anything but common, and It's rare that I run across someone new that has it. So,when I do, I appreciate them. I dont really have any expectations of myspace, however, I have contacted some pretty old school friends, so thats a plus. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

Scuba Diving. Gym and Fitness. Play Drums. Flair bartending.Wine.Paintball. Dining out.I love trying great new foods, it is truly a treat.Wakeboarding. Boating. Shooting pool. Love the beach, anything active actually. I just hate to be stagnant, always looking for new adventure. Probably why I love Firefighting so much, never the same day twice.I am blessed to have a job that I love to go to everytime, which also affords me the time off to get out and live life.I like to surround myself with positive people. It's not what you do but who you're with that makes a great time.
