HOBBIES / INTERESTS

Automotive lifestyle. I’m interested in everything that goes fast and roars. My hobbies are cars and boats. I’ve built cars for exhibitions and have had them featured in international magazines. My powerboat is the blast from the past offering poker run fun and crushing waves with smiles per gallon. Snowboarding in the winter, mountain biking in the summer. Weekly gym & running.
