He was on the soccer team at Vanguard for several years, eventually playing in Florida All Star game his senior year.

He returned to Venezuela to work with his father in their own oilfield business. He eventually started his own business of crew boats that would work on a Lake Maracaibo. Later, due to political unrest in the country, his company was expropriated by the government. He continued to work then with his father, until the country became so unstable, he returned to the USA to pursue his career in the oilfield.
