About me

I am reinventing myself as a writer. I was an executive in the electronics industry, and a National Ski Patrol member for 14 years. I travel extensively, usually to remote or exotic locales to explore and experience new cultures. I still backpack, drive fast, and love fly fishing, scuba diving, and quiet moments with someone I care about.

My work

One novel written, one in the works.
