Hello everyone!

Martin is the name and adventuring life with a smile is what ignites my flame. I'm a summer camp counselor by heart and a student becoming a teacher by passion. I work with children all year long and what they say alone is worth discussing. Kids will say the smartest of comments or the "make you take a second blank stare at them" type of comments, that will make my day, everyday.

This is one of my favorite moments from the past summer, we award a SMiLe bead to the camper with the happiest traits and grateful habits and I have the pleasure of giving it out. Moments like this is worth a lifetime in itself. I can't wait to share about all the lifetime moments my life encounters.

This is my dog Brady, any chance we get we love to see the wild. He is a lab adoption from the Humane Society. There's some type of mix in him but we're still learning as he grows. Anything on or around the water is usually a good destination for us. He is my first child and I love him as such. He's even recently found a pretty good mother that seems to fit really well.

Why not adventure in the truck any chance we get?

Brady's been hanging around since December 2016...

Sports is also a great hobby of mine and enjoying playing them with anyone. My friends and I often travel to any sporting events we can. I've even found a new love in arena football, which I would have never thought of. I'm the kind to take either side of a conversation just to be able to learn about that person, in my best tactful manner of course! With teaching, counseling, adventuring, being a dog dad, and so much more in my life I hope this sparked as much of your attention as it has mine and can't wait to see what this network has to share!
