About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make a positive contribution to the global collective consciousness

ABOUT ME

I am a free-thinking non-conformist. I operated a scrap metal salvage business for fifteen years, lived for three years in Siberia where I opened a joint venture to export semi-precious stones, and worked with a producer for over five years to develop my life story into a feature film which was never produced. I have spent most of the past five years traveling through India and am now temporarily living in Dallas while I conclude the final edit on a novel which I wrote eleven years ago. I also wrote, self-published, and marketed a book for dyslexics which sold over six thousand copies worldwide.

PHILOSOPHY

Freedom is the natural state of the human spirit. In order to benefit from life, one must follow one's own path.

Interests

I thoroughly enjoy travel and meeting people from other cultures. I am interested in history, literature, spirituality, ecology, and alternative medicine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
