God this makes me feel old. Well, lets see, after high school, I went to TCC for two years before transfering over to the University of Puget Sound where I graduated with a degree in Business Administration. While in school I worked for a while in health insurance before deciding that was a big racket and then got a job working for a marine accessories manufacturer in Seattle running their shop. The boss and I didn't quite see eye to eye, so I did a 180 and got into Mortgage lending. I've been doing that for coming up on five years now and although I love it, I'm currently planning to start my MBA next fall, as the future doesn't look bright for our industry. After 8 years of living in North Tacoma, my girlfriend and I bought a foreclosure in the ghetto (South 15th) and, after fixing it up, have been living there since February.

You'll still see me around the Harbor as I try to stay involved there. You can generally find me at E9, The Tides, or bumming around my parents' marina working on boats.
