Who am I? Read on to find out!
From the battlefield to the boardroom, I have always treasured having the responsibility of leading myself, my family, and my team. I believe in the "total leadership" philosophy of improving performance in all four domains of life - work, home, community, and self - by creating mutual value among them.
I am proud to have had the opportunity to serve my country, both as an enlisted Geospatial Intelligence Analyst and as an Attack Helicopter Commander during my career as a United States Marine.
My parents gave me my first computer, a Commodore 64, when I was in the third grade. I taught myself how to program text-based adventure games in BASIC, and have been fascinated by the evolution of technology ever since.
Ever since I was a young boy, I have had the aviation bug. My grandfather, a WWII pilot, was a strong influence in my life and I am glad he lived long enough to see me become a Naval Aviator.
I've built two 3D printers, which I use for in-home fabrication and prototyping. I love to disassemble everything from appliances to mechanical items, and from electronics to reverse engineering software. I find out how they work, and rebuild or improve them. I'm sure my mother loved this as I was growing up!
Just as I love taking things apart, I enjoy disassembling problems down to their root cause, analyzing areas for improvement, and building creative and effective solutions to them. I prefer to do this with a diverse team in order to have access to the wealth of knowledge and experience everyone brings to the table.
This is a collection of my various projects, resume, books I'm reading, links to my social accounts, and other things as they occur to me. It is a "living, breathing" place. Expect it to change. I am working on much more content, such as pages for my various projects (e.g., my 3D Printed Iron Man helmet) and other interests (e.g., real estate investing and entrepreneurship). Stay tuned!

Love reading, but can't find the time or the focus? One of the reasons I started this blog was to…
I've grown really tired of the many examples of corporate greed rife in the pharmaceutical industry. We all know that…
