Personal Interests
My weekends and free time always seem to be
jam-packed with a variety of personal projects and
travel. Since 2006, I have been traveling to major
sports cities throughout North America trying to see a
game in every professional stadium, arena, or ballpark
spanning the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB. Each trip results
in a full written review which includes recommendations
for visitors on where to go and what to do while in
town. The reviews are contained on several dedicated
websites that I’ve created. The websites have evolved
over time into a strong resource for sports travel, and
I’ve gained some notoriety as a sports travel writer
through my associations with local restaurants, bars,
and pubs.
Web design and search engine optimization (SEO) have become a
passion of mine. I’m a self-taught web designer and I've
experienced quite a bit of success assembling a variety
of online projects that are recognized and rank well on
the various Internet search engines. Through a systematic approach
encompassing everything from template design to link
building and targeted marketing, I’ve developed a system
through trial and error over the years, that works well
for me. My web design projects span a variety of
disciplines and keep my mind actively engaged and my
technical skill set sharp.
I also have a 1979 Triumph Spitfire that I’ve fully restored
and I manage and play on an over 30 men’s soccer team
that keeps me busy. As a husband and father of two, the
remainder of my spare time is reserved for family.
