Tell us a little about yourself, if you were to pick something what would you like others to absolutely know about you?
Daniellocke:
I am not the guy I appear to be at first glance. I would encourage you to scratch away at the surface and look for the diamond in the rough. Not to call my self a gem, but I believe we all are. Every human, when stripped of the prejudices which were taught, and the experiences which jaded them, lies a heart, capable of love and compassion. I can appear to be unapproachable, snooty, and superficial, very aware of it. I’m usually well groomed, properly composed, smartly dressed, and a stern expression drawn across my face, since I’m usually lost in thought. However, I assure you with much certainty that my gaze is warm, and my smile, candid. I’m tough as nails and don’t hesitate to stand up for my self and the people I love, the things believe in with conviction; my faith, my love, and our freedom. I pass it forward, quietly doing good deeds and the elation it gives. I am a man of integrity, these days it’s what I’m most proud of. I work hard and always deliver what I promise, if I am unable to, then I don’t collect. I don’t take a free ride from anyone, as I firmly believe that you give as much as you take. I hold my chin up high, as the work continues, eyes firmly on the prize.
RentMen:
What are your hobbies, what do you like to do in your spare time?
Daniellocke:
I was told one day, “do what you love, and you will never work a day in your life”. I have had an uncanny ability to turn all my hobbies and passions into sources of income. I coach a variety of sports, as well as participate in some organized leagues. Particular favourites, are beach volleyball and sprint kayaking since they keep on or near water and under the sun. However nothing takes the cake, like my favorite activity of all time. If you ask me what my ideal day would be or vacation, I would respond without hesitation, shredding the mountain side slopes on a freshly waxed snowboard, in semi warm winter day, where the sun beats radiantly onto glistening snow. On these days you can find me and my buds ripping off the gondola, with a btl of wine on the inside pocket of my jacket, and a flask of bourbon, on the opposing side. I tend to enjoy making my own path down the mountainside, carving the forest, snowcovered trails with my snowboard, looking for sweet look out points to stop and soak in the view. Although I love the beach, nothing trumps that. Finishing the day watching an apres ski band perform some easy rock favorited with a cold brew... ca c’est la vie!
RentMen:
How do you go the 'Extra Mile' in your life?
Daniellocke:
I am a man of extremes. My mother always says that I don’t know how to half-ass anything. You know how some people’s parent’s are always on always telling them to finish what they started. Not mine! Mine are scared to introduce me to new concepts because once I get caught on to something I don’t stop until I’m the best or one of the best at it. *out comes my extremely competitive nature*. Long story short, I live on the extra mile, built a house on it, with a little fence and two car garage. I may not be the brightest or the most intelligent person in a room. What some may understand the first time around, may take me 50 read throughs, but you better believe that when I do get it, I’m going to do It better than anyone around me, because I am the most applied person you will meet in a long time. Preseverance, my second favoriting word that’s starts with a P, right after Pe***.
RentMen:
What do you do for fun?
Daniellocke:
I really enjoy entertaining. I enjoy having people over for dinner and going over the top to get the “wow” factor. Cooking is a passion. I’m also a very active person. Paddle boarding, open water swimming, cycling. I also like to put it in low gear and just chill out pool side in my speedo, always a speedo, or by a camp fire with a cold one with some solid people. A good movie, period pieces or anything with Melissa McCartney. Oh and dogs, I will pet every dog I see, you are warned.
