From the home station in Port Richey to Florida’s parks and emergency operations, amateur radio is where technical curiosity meets public service.

I’m a General Class amateur radio operator active on HF, VHF, and UHF. I enjoy making contacts, refining station capabilities, activating parks, and helping strengthen resilient communications across Pasco County.
