Born at Georgetown University Hospital, and grew up in Colesville, MD.
I got hooked on sailing when neighbors John and Craig Lloyd handed me the tiller on the South River just off the Chesapeake. There’s just something about a little weather helm to windward.
After graduating from Springbrook HS, I left home for Clemson University where I graduated with a degree in Civil Engineering. 34 years later, I retired in time to pick up the Pogo and start sailing.
Over the years I’ve chartered cruising boats and owned a Laser and an Etchells.
Some other nasty addictions I picked up along the way are Mountain Biking, Class V Kayaking, Telemark Skiing and Fly Fishing.
Naturally, I’m a Clemson fan and season ticket holder . I’m also a Liverpool FC fan.
