I am lucky enough to have grown up in a beach town in San Diego where the ocean was never more than 5 minutes away. I take it for granted most days, but it really is the one thing that never fails to make me happy. There’s something therapeutic about standing in the sun, staring out at the ocean, listening to the rhythm of the tide that instantly calms me, gives me hope and faith in something greater than myself, and genuinely makes me happy. I’ve always wanted to live in a big city at some point in my life, but I know, ultimately, I’ll wind up in a house overlooking the water.

I have 3 brothers. 
This is Matt: 32 - Married to Lauren - Has a daughter, Reagan - Used to take me to the park to hit grounders to me and catch during pitching practice - Protective - Very protective - When I turned 21 and could finally go out with my older brothers, we all became very close - Loving brother/father - Sarcastic - Likes country music AND rap - Works for Max Equip. Rental - One of his dream jobs is to run a restaurant - Another is to have a gourmet roach coach - He’s a great cook - My hope for him is that he stops worrying about the money and just goes for one of those dreams someday
This is Ryan: 26 - Probably the brother I’m closest with/spend the most time with - p90x - healthy eater (usually) - We are both taking a psychology class - Good at math - Currently works as a financial analyst - I don’t think he likes it that much (hence the psych class) - Happy Hour - Bowling - Athletic - Triathlons - Funny - Sarcastic (runs in the family) - Reader - Ambitious - Used to be in a show choir at our high school called Sound Express - If he ever reads this, he’ll kill me for writing that - Believes in a bigger purpose for life than making money - We have a lot in common when it comes to fitness, eating right, and beliefs in a greater good, greater purpose, etc. - Zeitgeist (look it up on Vimeo if you haven’t heard of it)
This is Tom: 22 - Guitar player - intellectual - book smart - reader - computer wiz - sarcastic - eats A LOT of junk food and never gains a pound - the brother I butt heads with most (probably bc of how close we are in age) - On his own alot, by choice - Not sure what he wants to do with his life (are any of us?) - He’s always been the one to do things out of the norm of everyone else - Young - Still finding his way
I'm on a mission to conquer my Quarter Life Crisis and live the exact life I want. If even one person is inspired/changed/given hope by my journey, then it will have been worth it.
