About Me
Sometimes you can glean a lot from someone's habits, so here's me:
  • Sometimes my socks don't match
  • I try to buy all the same color socks so that it's easier to match them up
  • I'm a little "style challenged" when it comes to clothing, but I'm getting better
  • ENTJ
  • I love carrot juice ... and my juicer loves me!
  • I love to watch the UFC .. those fights are so fun to watch!
  • I like to drive my Bimmer fast sometimes (plus it gets better mileage than my other car)
  • When it snows, I like to drive my Jeep Grand Cherokee because I can drive into snowbanks and create my own parking space
  • I need to make it to my vacation places in Hawaii more often ... because I love the ocean
  • I like to get my hair cut often (about every 10-14 days) at SuperCuts (because it's cheap and I like having my head touched)
  • I have my fav jeans and t-shirts that I wear a lot (and have holes) not to mention some pretty holy underwear
  • My friends know me as the "happy go lucky guy" that's always smiling ... but if you ever get on the wrong side of me ... well, you wouldn't want to see that
  • I'm a stock market information junkie
  • I love going back to Denver to play with my nephews (5yo, 2yo, 9mo)
  • I like to go to CostCo and buy food in bulk (and splurge on samples) -- and of course, cereal in bulk, tissue paper in bulk, soy milk in bulk, salmon steaks in bulk ... you get the picture
  • I'm also a big gadget freak, e.g. it's about the toys! Not those toys! For it is about the latest electronic gadget. That stuff turns me on!
  • Recycle, recycle, recycle
  • Not a big fan of shopping for anything (except electronics)
  • I'm kind of a slob, but fortunately, I have a cleaning lady that helps me out
  • Every free moment I get, I'm out playing a sport

TV commercials? (see the vids below) Ya ... even though I grew up in Denver, the peeps in Thailand thought I was a cool looker ;) and so I had TV gigs for the likes of Carlsberg, Unilever, etc ... once, one of the female models had a crush on me and told everyone that I was after her ... my friends knew better!

I heard this at a Harvard Medical School graduation for a friend of mine: "Life is about striving high to achieve one's goals, and in the process, helping others to reach theirs" .. this is pretty much how I live my life.

My balance comes into play, literally, when I go play hockey, or at the boxing gym, or when I row on the Charles River, etc. Then, there's the extreme me of sky diving in Hawaii, or SCUBA diving in the Carribean. My golf swing sucks though!

I had moved to Cambridge to attend graduate business school and decided to stick around afterwards because I love the fact that this city is full of really smart people -- the intellectual capital is huge -- and that all makes life just so much more fun! Any other University of Colorado (Boulder) and MIT alums? Always into meeting others.

Television commercials that I starred in from WAY back (hint: younger):

TITLED: The baby leaks! (Unilever soap television commercial that I did in Thailand. Funny because I'm the father of a new born that "pees" on me and needs to be "cleaned" with antibacterial soap. This is the equivalent product of Lever 2000 here in the US)

TITLED: Insurance Comfort! (This is a television commercial that aired in Thailand during the currency crisis in the late 90's. I'm the guy trying to comfort my girlfriend and give her a kiss on her forehead.)

 

TITLED: Magic in a Bottle! (A whiskey TV commercial I did in Thailand. I'm near the end, the guy in glasses on the right drinking with his buddies and pouring the drink -- yes, small supporting part -- no, I'm not the guy doing the tricks trying to impress the girls)

 

TITLED: Got your Love Gadget? (This was a news clip that was shot for Channel 7. I was with my MIT Sloan 2000 classmates at The Rack downtown Boston. There's me trying to pick up a bar hostess ;))

 

THIS IS ONE OF MY EXTREME SPORT THINGS I LIKE TO DO: Skydiving in Hawaii (This is my first skydive in Hawaii. It was awesome!)

Some of my friends call me goofy, some serious, often off playing some sport ... but the name of the game is to live a full life!

I also travel some. Having grown up in Denver, my folks still live there, so I go back often. Sometimes in NYC, with quick jaunts to other places where I have friends (so I guess that could be anywhere in the world). Having used to live in LA/SF/OC/Dallas/DC/Philly/Chicago/London/Bangkok, I'm fortunate to have friends in lots of places. A weekend in Paris? Sure!

Btw, my friends on here are those that I've actually met in person and know. Please don't ask to link to me until we meet Just keeps the relationships real.
