Matthew's Story
Life
Living in hawaii for the last 24 years, with stints of work (land development) in chicago and st. pete florida. it's basically a long commute back and forth.
i am currently living w/my long term girlfriend for the last 12 years--never married/no kids and we enjoy travel and gourmet cooking/dining.
i race on three different yachts, full time, both open ocean and course racing. my position on all is bowman/foredeck captain. We took first in the whole Aloha Division in the 2005 Transpac, on So Far, a Swan 48. My newest sailing gig is in Acapulco on an all carbon fiber IOR 2-tonner (44 feet) called Ole. I have been going once a month for the regattas. Surfing, sailing and diving are my passions and travel is the conduit for these adventures.
yo hablo espanol muy bien y je parle francais un peu, aussi.
you can email me for ...Expand for more
the sailing website for more racing info.
that's the short version--a hui ho!
College
graduated from university of hawaii, college of business with a degree in finance in...1991! yep, took the long route, but i really enjoyed my 20's surfing and travelling the world and just couldn't stop!
Workplace
i am a land developer and am currently concentrated in st. pete florida. i have done many rehab projects, as well as new construction in hawaii, chicago and florida.
i got my start in commercial banking in hawaii (b of a) and then, after figuring out the banking angle, quit the corporate world and struck out on my own--to never look back.
it's a great business, if you can handle the risk. plenty of free time and some great paychecks, albeit few and far between.
Military
i feel lucky that i never had to serve in the military.
