By way of introduction, in addition to my day to day responsibility at Amtrust Financial, I am a writer, author, speaker and currently live in Dallas Texas. Married to my treasure beyond compare Vilma Ivellisse, a native New Yorker by birth, a Texan by choice. This is my favorite photo of us in Cabo San Lucas with family on vacation. To us the footprints in the sand represent where we have been and what we have learned as we walk hand in hand confident and excited about the future.

I grew up in Dallas Texas and earned my living as a professional salesman for more than 30 years in the oil-well drilling and production industry as well as telecom, real estate and insurance. Vilma is an office administrator for Patterson and Associates Insurance. Vilma and I have 3 children, 4 grandchildren, and 2 rescue dogs rosie and clooney.

My passion in life is all of the above, and my interests range from health & fitness, to music and dancing with my beautiful and charming wife. My calling in life which I have come to understand through my own success as well as failure is to encourage others. To provide a road map of the road already traveled, to help you and others avoid the traps and pitfalls along L.I.F.E.s path.

See our story began with a need for resolution and clarity to the challenges in life that often bring us brokenness, uncertainty, and a sense of loss and failure. Yet a comfort and direction that can, and has been found outside of self. The path is one in which "There is much to learn that will take a willingness to not know". Often referred to as faith.

L. I. F. E. is a series of new beginnings, completion, and starting again. "Faith, commitment, determination, and taking daily steps toward our chosen destination and calling in life are those common links to purpose and fulfillment." I have found that courage and obedience produce great rewards". Culminating in your story, and mine.

“It’s just words until you realize it's how we communicate or purpose and calling in L.I.F.E.”
