Son of an explorer, multi-cultural and international resident, retired from nearly 30 years in the international project finance and development industry, focused on the energy sectors. Have traveled to, and accomplished business in all corners of the world, but find solace in the forests of the Blue Ridge in Appalachia, and the mountains of Western Montana.

I am a student of geo-politics and geo-economics, interested in world cultures and history. I am a pilot, a horseman, musician, a Harley biker, a wanderer and a dreamer ... inheriting an explorer mind-set, I remain restless in spirit and feel I must continually be on the move for new adventures and challenges ... a rolling stone.

I have been a student of religion and man's inherent need to have one. I am a Christian, finding that spiritual truth in a relationship with spiritually alive Jesus Christ. That truth enlightens all elements of wonder, interest and study - and through it, while the spirit is restless, the soul has become content. Truth does that.

I am a husband of a forbearing and loving wife, and the father of five, grandfather of four. That role is the most rewarding of all life's endeavors, whatever the costs of the efforts.

Today, I consult investors and banks around the world, travel some, and dream in the expanse of God's creation, wherever it might be, while riding a Harley, a horse, or on a walk. I've had the vibrance of the city, the challenges of jockeying for corporate, political and financial advantage ... but today enjoy the company of my wife and family, dogs and horses, and expressing God's love in just the way I choose to live.
