Fishing, Baseball, and Auto
Whenever free time is allowed, I tend to spend most of my time therapeutically by fishing; however, If I am not fishing, I am probably working on my jeep. Creating projects out of off-road improvements, or designing/ fabricating parts to test in the off-road field. With those being the hobbies i strive to set aside time for month to month, Baseball is where my heart lies. As I have played baseball through all of my educational stages through life such as: grade-school, high-school, and college. I have managed to implemented in my day to day workouts to keep me physically and mentally in the best shape possible.
