About

As a busy corporate president I find my relaxation in writing. Having founded a packaging manufacturing company in 1994 and guided its growth to a $13,000,000 organization I discovered writing poetry, songs (iTunes and Google) and children's books (Amazon & Barnes & Noble) a positive way to refresh my mind and energize my self. After 42 years in the corporate world and 26 years in the U.S. Navy Reserves (retired Captain) I'm still enjoying myself. I'm learning and growing every day. Self taught I'm far from being good. I've learned to self publish books and music. I look forward to seeing each project get alittle better than the last.
