Born and raised in the south, played college football for 4 yrs. After I went to Art School in Florida for 4 yrs, where I started swimming seriously then moved to NYC in June of 2001. I got my MFA from NYU in 2008 and my wife and I just had twins in March 2009!
I have been racing triathlon since 1996. Favorite Race of all time, "Timberman" in NH. Was awesome, hopefully will take the family there to do it again!
While in NY I was the Aquatics Director at The Brooklyn Sports Club, "best pool in Brooklyn". Really!
We moved back to South Carolina to raise our twin girls in July 2009 where I am now the Head Swim Coach at my old high school during the Fall and the Assistant Head Coach at Palmetto Aquatics the rest of the year.
On October 5th, 2009 I began "again" the 34 week journey back into racing shape, first Florida 70.3 2010 in May, a Summer full of fun sprint races in Charleston, then finishing out the season with 2 HIMs Augusta 70.3 and The SC Half.
