I'm a security engineer by day and by night I am studying Traditional Tibetan Medicine and I'm also director of a Tibetan Buddhist Meditation center in Chicago. I spent many years living and traveling in Asia and travel to Europe quite a bit as well with my wife Claire.

I studied French for six years and love practicing French, Thai, Tibetan, and any language I have the change to practice!

I'm quite proud that I got my Open Water Scuba Diving License before I could drive. In high school my mother would drop me off at a local university where I learned to Scuba Dive and over the last 30 years have been diving in some amazing places such as Florida, Indiana, Thailand.
