David Kravetz (aka Sumoflam), 55, resides in Lexington, KY and works full time as the Senior Director of New Business Development for iHigh.com, a provider of high school, college and youth organization web sites, live streaming and other functions.  He LOVES his job at iHigh. In his spare time, he is a freelance travelographer and photojournalist and focuses on the normal, everyday and unusual things of this wide world. He has a blog which meanders from various thoughts to photo essays of many of his trips (see http://sumoflamjournal.sumoflam.biz).  Many of his trip journals can be seen at http://www.sumoflam.biz/Journals.htm and thousands of his trip photos can be seen at http://public.fotki.com/sumoflam.  His photos have been used in advertising, newspapers and even on a couple of magazine covers

 

David is also the webmaster, media manager, part time videographer (see his YouTube site) and photographer,  for Antsy McClain and the Trailer Park Troubadours, a top 20 Americana band out of Nashville.  He also has been a webmaster and newsletter writer for American football player Aaron Boone, having produced the AirBoone Express since 2003.

 

Sumoflam, as he is known to thousands of friends around the US, has a passion for traveling and has been to 47 of the states in the US as well as five provinces in Canada, numerous states in Mexico, the Philippines, China and Korea.  He has lived in Japan for more than 6 years and has been fluent in Japanese for over 30 years. He has worked as a freelance interpreter/translator over the years.

 

Why Sumoflam? - David has always been a fan of sumo wrestling and originally had created an email address as "sumoman" back in the late 1980s.  Through his involvement with Antsy McClain, whose fans are known as "Flamingoheads", he decided to change his moniker to "Sumoflam"--thus the Sumo Flamingo logo that can be found in his profiles all over the web. This logo was conceived by David and lovingly drawn by Antsy McClain, who not only is a fabulous singer/songwriter, but also an AMAZING artist (see http://www.antsy.net).

 

He is the father of five and also has NINE grandchildren who call him Grampz. He has been married to his wife Julianne, a fabric artist and fellow employee at iHigh.com, for more than 33 years and he truly Married Up!!
