GRADUATE STUDIES AND ADVENTURE

Lukas went to school, excelled in college at the University of North Florida, and walked away with a degree in financial investments. Following the contemporary path of most young college graduates striving for success, he then joined Lincoln Financial and became a financial investment broker. This is where the story gets really interesting. To keep his sanity while working an office job, he got his hands on a fourteen-foot yellow pine tree and with hand tools dug himself out a South Pacific-style outrigger canoe. Once this was finished, he knew it was time. So he quit his job, threw the canoe in the water and sailed 400 miles down the east coast of Florida without a motor! From here, the adventures haven’t stopped.
