About Me

I'm an on-the-go person, always looking for fun, because I'll rest when I'm dead. :) I was born, raised, and currently live on Long Island. I spend my weekends in the fall and winters flying down to Tampa Bay to see my Buccaneers. Yeah, I'm a season ticket holder. Check out my pics if ya don't believe me. When I'm not in Tampa, I am always looking for new cities to see and explore. I have been to over 20 different US cities, mostly for hockey games. I have seen NHL hockey games in 10 different arenas, to date. I have also been to Ireland, twice, and England, Scotland, and Wales. When I'm not traveling I am home playing sports like rollerhockey and beach volleyball. I love to spend time going to the movies, heading out East for some wine tasting, enjoying the museums in NYC, chillin at the beach, go skiing during the winter, chill at low key house parties, chat over Starbucks, or just catch up on IM & email. And when I'm not doing any of the above, I'm probably out on my board riding around. I also support and do volunteer work for LIGALY in Bay Shore. It is a not for profit organization that creates safe spaces for the GLBT youth of Long Island. I find donating time to charity to be very rewarding, especially when you can provide a positive influence for our youth. Last October, I was able to do some charity work in New Orleans. It was an amazing experience which I can't wait to do again. I WILL revisit NOLA! I should also be doing some work with my Alma mater, Dowling College, to support their first GLBT scholarship and to help reconnect the alumni with the school. Recently, I was chosen to appear in their "I'm Dowling" ad campaign. I made this layout with help from pYzam , Look at these other Layouts!
