He loved martial arts, obtaining his Black Belt in 1997 and coached the local 1999 team at the National AAU Tae Kwan Do competition.  He competed in many Disc Golf tournaments as well as enjoyed hiking, motorcycling, and Dungeons & Dragons with friends.  Always ready for life's next adventure, he enjoyed having his friends along for the ride.
