About Kenzo

About Me

(and a lot of rambling)

Gallery: Friends, Family, etc.

Intro

If you're asking yourself, "What in the heck do I want to know all this stuff about some guy I don't know?" Well, I can only tell you that this site is more for myself, friends, and family than it is for anyone else, if that makes any sense.

But I still hope it can entertain those who read it. I know I like browsing personal pages every now and then just to read about other peoples lives and interests. I'm a bit of an observer at heart.

Background

Let's see, a little about me. Well, for one, my name's Kenzo. There alone encompasses quite a story. I was born Japan, where my dad was teaching English. My mother is French and my dad American (Scottish descent). A good Japanese friend of theirs helped name me. I am told Ken-Zo means health and creativity, respectively.

I don't remember Japan because I was only a year old when we moved to Honolulu, Hawaii. I was nothing but a beach bum there (wish I could go back). Here's proof:

Yup, that's me, displaying the true nature of a beach "bum."

Since Hawaii I've lived in Modesto, CA, Santa Clara, CA (most of my life), and France for a year.

Interests

I've played all kinds of sports, including Soccer for 9 years, Tae-Kwon-Do Karate (black belt), competitive swimming before and all through high school, etc.

I've always loved motorcycles, but my parents never allowed me to own or ride one. As soon as I got the "okay" at age 22 I was all over it. I've owned three motorcycles since. To go to my motorcycle page click on the "HawkGT" link below.

Present

Currently I am attending DeVry University and will soon graduate with my BSEET (Bachelor's of Science in Electronics Engineering Technology). What a mouth-full, huh. Well, it sure is a brain full as well. I can't wait to be done with school.

Future

I'd love to buy a house while my girlfriend (of 6 years), and I are still young. After that I'd like to live in France for a bit. I've spent a lot of time with family there, and I'd like to go back.
