I am passionate about boating and excited to share that passion with my clients! I absolutely love the feeling of chasing adventure; my experience in boating has been a huge part of that. I grew up on bowriders, center console fishing boats, and learned how to sail on a minifish. As a young adult, I was attracted to the freedom and adventure sailboats offer. I began sailing in Long Island Sound, and as I gained experience, I ventured further to Block Island, eventually sailing to Newport and Martha's Vineyard. I have recently earned my USCG Master 25-ton captain's license with a sailing endorsement.
Second to boating and fishing, my adventurous spirit led me to skiing where I grew to be a ski patroller on Vail Mountain in Colorado. I served as a first responder to both minor and serious medical rescues as well as avalanche mitigation. Although I loved my time in the mountains and helping others as a patroller, ultimately the ocean brought me back to the East Coast. I introduced my wife to the cruising world and we never looked back!
I am always eager to help in any way and I look forward to working with you!
