CURRENT MISSION

I recently retired from my high school science teaching job after fifteen years of employment and am entering a new chapter in my life as a retired person. I have three endeavors . One is an online high school science or mathematics tutor. I currently tutor about 10 students preparing them to take their Nursing Entrance Examination. I am attempting to start a digital marketing system. I've had limited success and will continue to work on this goal. Finally I want to be a good husband, father and grandfather. My overall objective is to help as many people get what they are striving to accomplish

ABOUT ME

I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I enjoy traveling, meeting new and interesting people. My most daring thing was to drive a NASCAR type car on a professional race track and an Indy Car at Indianapolis Raceway. My most interesting thing was a job as an international courier transporting documents from Japan to China.

My wife and I lived in Egypt for one year, where I taught high school in Alexandria. We lived on a plot of ground once used by the Roman army. We enjoyed watching the progress of the excavations within blocks of our apartment.

I was also a Peace Corps Volunteer. Worked in Guyana, South America. I taught for 7 years on a Navajo Indian Reservation in Central New Mexico. This is located in the USA although there were days when I think that we are in another country. I also worked in Sells, Arizona for six years on the Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation teaching high school science.

PHILOSOPHY

I can do anything I want. This anything will happen if I create a goal and focus on it. The trick is trying to find goals that are worthy of the limited time and energy that I and each one of us have on this earth. One of my current goals is to start a profitable online marketing site.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like action movies especially spy type of adventures.
I like supernatural type of books. I have just finished a book by Dean Koontz. I like to listen to Coast to Coast AM. This is an all nite radio talk show that specializes in aliens, flying saucers,ghosts and other similar topics. Have listened to the show for years. I am willing to give up an hour of sleep to hear the "latest news" from the other world. I am currently working on becoming a proficient Argentina Tango Dancer. I like the music and the way that you can move your body to interpret the music. I also like music from the 60's, 70's and 80's and am learning to enjoy opera.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I flew a World War II fighter. The plane was in Albuquerque, New Mexico for a week. I got a ride. We did loops, banks etc.
