Master The Military
I’m passionate about adventure, travel, and personal growth. I’ve spent the last five years living as a digital nomad with my wife and kids, immersing ourselves in different cultures around the world. Surfing, scuba diving, and riding motorcycles are my favorite ways to connect with nature and stay present. I also enjoy playing golf (though not very well), hosting dinner parties with friends, and learning local languages wherever we live. My greatest joy comes from quality time with my family whether we’re exploring a new city or just hanging out at home. I believe life is meant to be fully experienced, and I’m always looking for ways to push my limits, stay curious, and create meaningful connections with others.
