Frank's Story
Since high school I joined the army and traveled for a while, Later I tried working several different jobs in an attempt to determine what I wanted to do with my life. I think I might finally be there...
I can find humor in nearly anything (even when its not appropriate) and my friends describe me as a big kid.
I do love nature and enjoy camping, hiking, snorkeling, photography and reading.
I like both cats and dogs.
I have over 20 years of martial arts training in varied styles; I hold a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and Ninjitsu and a second degree black belt in Tang Soo Do. I have also studied Isshinryu, Boxing, Ancient European sword fighting, knife fighting and standard kickboxing.
I am a Desert Storm war veteran and have traveled to several other countries in both a military and civilian capacity including Australia, Germany, Honduras, Belize, Saudi Arabia, Guatemala, and Canada. I have climbed Aries Rock in Australia, flown into the crater of Mt St. Hele...Expand for more
ns in a helicopter, hiked on glaciers in Alaska and yes, camped in the desert.
I do get seasick, but not airsick.
In the past I worked civilian security and held a top secret Department of Defense clearance. I have worked both armed and unarmed security. My work has allowed me to experience things like helping in the cleanup of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and working personal protection for high-level corporate employees during strikes and plant closures. I was even mistaken for FBI on one occasion.
I now work law enforcement for the state of New York as a correction officer. Working in a prison is turning out to be an interesting and challenging experience, not something I would recommend for the fainthearted.
The money is ok, but the benefits and retirement are unmatched.
I embrace change, challenge and competition and I like to test myself and my limitations; I feel that when a person does not experience change something inside them sleeps.
