About Me

hm. Well, I'm a structural engineer and did that for 27 years, but now I run a nonprofit that deals with addiction and saving lives. We do amazing things and I love our work. Check us out, Truth Pharm. Sadly, I got into this work after losing my oldest son, Jeff to a heroin overdose. I have two other sons who keep me going.

Let's see, I'm also an artist of sorts. I mostly do street painting. I like to write, though I don't do that as much as I'd like these days... I like music, interesting people, politics, advocacy, activism, living life to the fullest. And, I'm an all around rabblerouser.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I ran out of my life savings starting a nonprofit, so sometimes it's good to be able to crash somewhere for free so I can continue our work.

Also, I have a big farm house and love to share our home with others.
