My Journey

From Pizza Delivery to World Traveler


My career journey has been a winding road, filled with unexpected twists and turns, challenges, and moments of triumph.

From humble beginnings as a young entrepreneur to my current goal to succeed as a seasoned traveler and influential reviewer, my path has been anything but ordinary.

Early Beginnings


At the tender age of 11, I embarked on my first foray into the world of business, purchasing my own school clothes and more with the earnings from a combination of paper route to door-to-door car washing and lawn mowing.

By the time I turned 15 in 1993, I was already paying for my own phone line at home, a testament to my early independence and resourcefulness.

Domino's Pizza and Military Service


After several years honing my skills at Domino's Pizza, I made a pivotal decision to join the military.

It was a Navy commercial that served as a wake-up call, prompting me to reassess my life choices and embark on a new path. With determination and focus, I entered the delayed entry program, using the opportunity to make positive changes and prepare for my future.

My journey in the military led me to become a radioman with a higher clearance, known as a cryptologist (CTO).

Over the course of four years, I underwent rigorous training and gained invaluable experience, laying the foundation for my future endeavors.

Transition to Civilian Life


Following my military service, I found myself in Las Vegas, where I briefly dabbled in car sales before discovering my passion for live events, specifically video production.

From exciting live events such as fights and concerts to boring corporate sales and legal compliance training, my work in the video industry opened up new opportunities and experiences.

Embracing a Digital Nomad Lifestyle


Fast forward 23 years, and I find myself living in the Philippines, embracing a digital nomad lifestyle while leveraging my expertise in reviewing restaurants, cafes, and lodging establishments.

With over a million views on my review photos and a reputation as a top reviewer, I hope to someday become a sought-after influencer in the travel community.

Looking to the Future


As I continue to explore new destinations and share my experiences with the world, I am always seeking ways to expand my reach and leverage my influence for mutual benefit.

Whether it's integrating my Google ratings into the web3 world or collaborating with brands and establishments for perks and opportunities, I am constantly evolving and adapting to the ever-changing landscape of travel and hospitality.

Seeking Collaborations and Connections


Today, as I find myself in Baguio, I am reminded of the importance of leveraging my reviewer ratings, views, and top post examples to forge connections and secure opportunities as I travel.

With a one-page design showcasing my accomplishments and influence, I aim to attract the attention of potential collaborators and partners, paving the way for exciting new ventures and adventures on the horizon. Hoping to fund future travel to become a world traveling reviewer, blogger & web3 onboarder.

Good for you, time to enjoy life in the tropics. I spent many years in the Caribbean. I had jobs since I was a kid in the 80's, working hard so I get it completely. I joined the Army after Sept 11 as a reservist. Fortunately as an officer I wasn't deployed too much, but got to see the lovely deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan!

I became disabled from the COVID vaccine, but it sounds like yours was military related which is good benefit wise for you. What percent connection did they give you at the VA?

actually 10% for tinitus, appealing they denied the bursitis. Crap that jab... i wonder if it was the anthrax vax that helped me develop bursitis...

I guarantee it did. I have horrible tinnitus too, I feel for you! Getting anything from the VA is a war unto itself. I hate dealing with all the paperwork!
