On the Board of Directors for Pinellas Coastal Conservation Association and large contributor to Tampa Bay Watch.
For my fishing charter business I do a lot of writing and speaking engagements such as:
Regular guest on Captain Mel Berman's radio show and featured speaking events.
Speaker for the St Petersburg Times Fishing School seminar series.
Seminar speaker for Boater's World, Largo; Boater's World Clearwater; and West Marine St Petersburg
Correspondent for the St Petersburg Times "Captain's Corner" articles
