Hailing from Linwood, New Jersey, my love for fishing and boating has been ingrained since childhood. With nearly 8 years of experience working as a mate on the local head boats and years of fishing with friends, I've honed my skills on the water. After graduating from Mainland Regional High School, I pursued higher education at the University of Rhode Island, delving into Environmental Economics and Marine Affairs. My time in Rhode Island not only enriched my academic knowledge but also deepened my passion for inshore and offshore tuna fishing, which I've seamlessly brought back to New Jersey, yielding significant success.
Whether it's tackling yellowfin tuna on small boats with spinning rods or mastering the art of back bay flounder fishing, I strive to expand my expertise with every excursion. Beyond fishing, I find joy in spending quality time with family and friends, embarking on adventures with my dog, working on my boat, and capturing moments through photography. Operating my own 21-foot center console, I also enjoy pushing the boundaries to reach the tuna grounds, always driven by the pursuit of large pelagic species. When the weather does not cooperate, you can be sure to find me plugging the sod banks for striped bass or jigging for fluke in the bay.
Joining the South Jersey Yacht Sales team presented an exciting opportunity to merge my passion with my profession. Eager to continue my journey in the industry, I saw this as a chance to connect with like-minded individuals and immerse myself in what I cherish most. I'm committed to providing clients with a seamless, enjoyable experience as they embark on their boat buying adventure. It's an honor to be part of this process, and I'm thrilled to help others discover the unparalleled joy of life on the water.
