My Saying:

Male

About Me:

Born in Norristown PA, moved around quite a bit but I call Philly my home. Joined the Marine Corps in August 2000 and got out in October 2007. Traveled a lot in the Marines (Japan, Korea, Hawaii, Guam, Phillipines, Iraq, Kuwait, Ireland, etc..) Working in Oceanside CA as a production supervisor for an aerospace company. Training at Gracie Barra Oceanside under Marcelo Pereira. Currently a white belt and hopefully getting my blue belt by next summer.

Interests:

Football, I love contact sports. GO EAGLES!!!!. I love the UFC, but I'm kind of skeptical of some of the new fighters they have there now. There are not a lot of finishers around. They are focusing on putting on more of a show than winning. It seems they would rather look good first and win second.

Favorite Music:

Rock. I'm into Metallica, Velvet Revolver, Staind, Smashing Pumpkins and all that stuff. Country. Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney, Hank Williams Jr/Sr, Brad Paisley.

Favorite Movies:

There are so many I like. My all time favorite is definately the Great Outdoors.

Favorite Television Shows:

Grey's anatomy and House

Favorite Books and Magazines:

I read a lot of textbook since I'm still in college. For pleasure I'm a really big dork because I read the Harry Potter series. I own the illiad and the odyssey along with the whole sherlock holmes collection.
