Thank you to Jeff Belonger I have been given the task, honor?, duty of writing a MEME. Although this is all new to me, I am always game. So... I am to reveal five things about Me:
1. I am a big fan of this Active Rain thing. In college I would have been voted "Least Likely to Blog" however in the "midday sun" of my professional career I couldn't have found a more interesting, revitalizing community of like minded professionals anywhere. I tip my hat to Bruce Bourgault and David Kucic for opening this world up to me.
2. I am about 24 hours - 10 days away from being a father! My wonderful wife Yuka is 38.5 weeks pregnant. You know that I am into the fatherhood thing when I talk in weeks! We are having a girl and I couldn't be more excited and concerned about raising her. Praying daily for her good health! Having a child is a great reason to focus on originating more loans!!!
3. Life Work balance is improtant to me. Here in Hawaii Golf is as common as Surfing and I love both. I enjoy surfing enormous mountains on the North Shore and have been doing so since I was 17. I have built a quiver of over 15 boards ranging from 6 feet tall to 12 feet tall and have recently picked up Stand Up Paddle Surfing and took 3rd place in a 8 mile race in August. My golf game needs work but doesn't all of ours? 
4. I don't take Freedom lightly and I support the United States Military. We are able to help people obtain the "American Dream" because our soldiers protect the "American Dream". God Bless Our Troops!
5. I hired a coach. Never thought that I would go that route in my career, yet it has been rewarding to say the least. Most coaches study psychology, sociology, salesmanship and mine is extremely knowledgeable about Real Estate and more importantly the Mortgage Industry and she adds a new perspective to each day. My coach holds me accountable and has high expectations (15 loans a month personally high!) for me. Sure, without a coach I would still enjoy what I do and would be successful, however just like working out I reached a plateau and she is helping me break through that plateau and reach way higher. It has been a wild ride and I intend to buckle up and hang on for the ride!
Oh... One more Thing. I am a HUGE San Diego Charger fan!
Aloha! and thanks for reading...
