CURRENT MISSION

Spread Excellence

ABOUT ME

I'm busy doing worldly things. I dream and act big. Sometimes the bureaucracy can't keep up so I busy myself with personal fun projects. I've competed in triathlon across the world and if you're an endurance nut you will be right at home. I'll have energy gels and nutrition drinks ready to go.

Or if you like to sit and read or spend time making a delicious home-made meal, you'd be right at home. We cook all meals at home.

I'm the CEO of a startup and I also am working on two big projects involving the fusion of billions of data points.

I'm a political pundit in the areas of National Defense, Soft-Power, Surveillance, leadership analysis, public policy, corporate social responsibility (CSR).

I cook all my own meals and they're darn good.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to 41 countries and usually add 2 a year. It's been pretty awesome. Swam Alcatraz, kissed under a Tropical Rainforest waterfall in Puerto Rico, slept on the top of the Alps after biking up 10 miles, ate grapes from the roof of an Italian restaurant inside Roman ruins, swam across a glacier lake, spent my birthday swimming in the Mediterranean Sea, spent New Year's on a cruise in the Caribbean with 2000 friends dancing the cupid shuffle.

Saved five people's lives in a car accident. Have a Medal of Heroism from the war in Afghanistan. Nearly lost my life after getting hit by a sports car. It was a beautiful experience and we're all connected. So I've seen the other side and it's amazing. I still suffer brain injury symptoms but it sometimes lets me read your mind...

Teach, Learn, Share

I seek out Life Masters to model them. When the student is ready the teacher will appear. Everyone is a student and teacher.

What I Can Share with Hosts

First please email me with these answers:
BTW, I get a few fakes a month...
What city are you visiting or want to visit and what is bringing you here
What things are you interested in seeing/doing/experiencing
Will you have a car
What will you be doing during the weekday

Very fitness, outdoors and action oriented over here. There might be a 5k, adventure race, triathlon or mud run in the mix that weekend!
