I was born an army brat in Germany in 1968. Despite being terrible in math and spelling I ended up graduating Magna Cum Laude from Temple University in 1998 with a split degree in Psychology and Political Science. Although I got my start working at Roy Rogers, considering my animus with math, it only made sense to work for financial institutions since 1993. Growing up we always had what we needed, but any more than that was an unpredictable variable. I have always realized that a keen art for ingenuity was my great strength.
I turned 50 in 2018 and like Walter White, I decided that I have to try to make the rest of my life mean something. Nobody knows how much time he has left, so I am going to spend the rest of mine trying to improve and enrich my life and pursue some lifelong dreams without fear and self-doubt…because they held sway over the last 25 years.
I don’t have a family of my own, but I do believe a family is in my future and I can’t wait to meet them. It’s only in the past couple of years that despite believing I was unworthy for what many take for granted or actually resent, I have come to realize that they may be my last great adventure.
It has always been a passion of mine to pursue artistic challenges; to continue to push my limits of ingenuity and craftsmanship and to create artifacts which can only be described as feats of creative legerdemain. Sorry that sounds like a conceit, but hey this website is all about me so…
