: About Me

I am 40 years old and am an account manager for a Material Handling dealer. Previously, I was training manager at a Toyota dealership. I owned a marketing company, which my wife, Lisa, and I ran for several years and I helped her in operating her jewelry business.

I spent ten years serving in the U.S. Air Force and am a veteran of Desert Shield and Desert Storm. I was an avionics technician and maintenance operations controller. I was honorably discharged in 1997.

I am a graduate of Saint Leo University and The Community College of the Air Force. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with my Bachelor's Degree in 1994 and received the Thaddeus Tedrowe Award for outstanding academic achievement. I am a member of Delta Epsilon Sigma National Honor Society.

I was raised Catholic, but am more aligned with the Greek Orthodox faith. Politically, I am aligned and registered with the Republican party, as I embrace the core values that party represents, however I am a true conservative, and consider moderates as those who compromise on their core values.

I am an avid scuba diver and numismatist (coin collector). I have many dives logged in the middle east and in Florida. One spearfishing incident in Saudi earned me the nickname "the Great White Hunter". Visit myspace.com/greatwhitehunter95 for more about me.

I am a HUGE Jimmy Buffet fan and enjoy the more soothing sounds of Yanni. I suppose if I ever become filthy rich I will become a beach bum on a Greek Island!

I currently reside in Florida, with my wife of eleven years, Lisa, and our dog, Snoopy.
