About Me |
|
| ............................................................ ........................................................... I am an out going, athletic individual, that loves the outdoors and being involved in activity. I enjoy camping, coaching and working out, but I really enjoy company from others with the same passions in life! ............................................................ ............................................................ ......................................................... I am Italian/Jewish, 6 ft, 190 lbs, with an athletic build!...................................................... ............................................................ ......................I grew up on the streets of L.A., Doing what ever I needed to do to survive! I am a product of 6 Elementary Schools, 3 Jr. High Schools and finnaly 1 High school! All due to UNSTABLE, PARENTS! (MOM, I LOVE YOU! I know you did the best under the CIRCUMSTANCES at hand). (My FATHER, It's all been SAID! Till then)........ So when I say "do what ever I had to do to survive" I mean just that. It was left to me to raise my two siblings! I mowed lawn's, SOLD FLOWERS OFF THE 405 FREEWAY, picked up DOG CRAP! You name it, I did it! I received my first BUT WOOPIN by my "BIG STEP FATHER" when I was in the Sixth grade! Abuse simular to this continued for a year and a half until my birth father regained cutody! However, I happened to walk in to the loving arms of a father whom had become an alcoholic, needlees to say, the physical abuse continued for another year! It came to a conclusion however, when on the last day of my 9th grade school year, my father blackened both eye's and bit a hole in my neck! This, after hitting 2 HOMERUNS and CATCHING a near perfect game! That's how I was rewarded! I finnaly moved in to my grandparents for the last time! Where for the first time in my life, I get to feel what LOVE and STABILITY really feels like! (I OWE YOU, "MY GRANDPARENTS", MY LIFE, MY EVERYTHING....WITHOUT YOU WHO WOULD I BE?)........................................................ ............................................................ ......................................................... I Graduated form Granada Hills High school, Where I letterd in Football, Baseball, Track, and Golf, not to mention Choir! You see, through out the abuse, my abusers could try to strip me of whom I was, but they could not strip me of my accomplishments on the ATHLETIC PLAYING FIELD'S! I OWNED THAT PART OF MY LIFE! (Thanks guy's) WHO"S LAUGHING NOW! ............................................................ ............................................................ ................................................... I then played Football and Baseball at the Jr. College level for three different schools before being offered a scholorship to UCLA! GO BRUINS! However, I threw that all away in one instance, after being involved in an altercation that left someone seriously injured! After counseling with my Head coach, I turned my self in to the L.A. Police Department to deal with my cosequences and consequently lost my scolorship! At that point, I was offered a contract with the L.A. RAIDERS, which led to a 2 year, DEVELOPMENTAL venture playing for the Dragons. I then decided to dabble in Baseball. I signed with the Bend Bandits, played 8 games and was picked up by the A's organization to play CENTER FIELD. After a 1/2 season of baseball, My grandmother decided that the MONEY I was making was not syfficient and she gave me an ultimatem: Get a REAL JOB or MOVE OUT! Needless to say my CENTER FIELD day's where over!(lol.......I NEVER SAID I WAS THE BEST DECISION MAKER) Soooooooo, I move to San Francisco, and ended up playing for the San Francisco General's, Semi Pro Football team. During that season I focused on increasing my forty yard time. I started the season running a 4.32 and by mid-season was in the 4.2 range. So after self marketing and perserverance, I landed my next GIG with the SAN JOSE SABERCAT'S ARENA FOOTBALL TEAM. I Finnaly finished my athletic career here in Medford, Oregon, playing for the SOUTHERN OREGON HEAT professional Indoor Football team. ............................................................ ............................................................ ......................................................... I am now an ATHLETIC TRAINER in Southern Oregon, I coach Football & BASEBALL and dabble in the Restaurant Industry! However my real JOB is making sure that no 1 child has to endure that of which I did as a child! That straight from the mouth of JESUS himself! Amen!....................................................... ............................................................ ...
