I grew up on Long Island, New York, and served seven years in the US Navy as a Hospital Corpsman, including overseas assignments and participation in NASA’s Transatlantic Abort Landing Team. While in the Navy, I studied Information Technology and specialized in custom Navy medical programs. After my service, I settled in Frederick, MD and was employed by Department of Defense. Currently I work at the Bureau of Labor and Statistics in Washington DC. My wife Jennifer and I have been together since 2007 and married since 2010; we have three dogs, Izzi (Norwich Terrier) , Olivia and Lillibet (Norfolk Terriers).
Inspired by my father's love for motorcycles, I began riding early, with long-distance trips starting in 2016. A simple invitation to Sturgis from Bill Karitis sparked my passion for exploring small towns and open roads.
I became aware of the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge in 2016; however, I waited to apply until I had accumulated several years of long distance riding experience. With the support of my lovely bride, family, and friends, I am looking forward to riding my own ride in August.
My charity choice for this Hoka Hey is Brunswick Beacon. The BEACON is a non-profit, ecumenical body, established primarily to provide food and emergency financial assistance to those in need, to include providing for the social, physical, and emotional needs of the most vulnerable citizens of the Greater Brunswick Community. https://www.brunswickbeacon.org DONATE TO THE BEACON
